The Pulitzer Prize is an award for
achievements in newspaper and online journalism, literature, and musical
composition in the United States. It was established in 1917 by provisions
in the will of American (Hungarian-born) Joseph Pulitzer who had made
his fortune as a newspaper publisher, and is administered by Columbia
University in New York City. Prizes are awarded yearly in
twenty-one categories. In twenty of the categories, each winner receives a
certificate and a US$10,000 cash award. The winner in the public service
category of the journalism competition is awarded a gold medal.
