One of the highest honors for journalists, writers, and musical composers in the Pulitzer Prize. 
First awarded in 1917, the Pulitzer Prize has been won by Emest Hemingway, Harper Lee, John F. 
Kennedy, and Rodgers and Hammerstein, among others. As with many famous awards, this prize was 
named after its founder, Joseph Pulitzer. 
Joseph Pulitzer’s story, like that of many immigrants to the United States, is one of hardship, hard 
work, and triumph. Born in Hungary, Joseph Pulitzer moved to the United States in 1864. He wanted 
to be a reporter, but he started his American life by fighting in the American Civil War. After the war, 
Pulitzer worked for the German – language newspaper, the Westliche Post. His skills as a reporter 
were wonderful, and he soon became a partial owner of the paper. 
In 1878, Pulitzer was able to start a newspaper of his own. Right from the first edition, the 
newspaper took a controversial approach to news. Pulitzer wanted to appeal to the average reader, so 
he produced exciting stories of scandal and intrigue. Such an approach is commonplace today, but in 
Putlizer’s time it was new and different. The approach led to the discovery of many instances of 
corruption by influential people. Pulitzer’s paper became very famous and is still produced today. 
The success of Joseph Pulitzer’s newspaper made him a very wealthy man, so he wanted to give 
something back to his profession. Throughout his later years, he worked to establish university 
programs for the teaching of journalism, and he funded numerous scholarships to assist journalism 
students. Finally, he wanted to leave a legacy that would encourage writers to remember the 
importance of quality. On his death, he gave two milllion dollars to Columbia University so they could 
award prizes to great writers. 
Question 36: Why does the writer mention “John F. Kennedy” in line 3? 
A. He was one of the inventors of the famous awards. 
B. He was one of the winners of the Pulitzer Prize. 
C. He was one of the people who selected the Pulitzer winners. 
D. He was in one of the scandals reported on by Joseph Pulitzer.
