Yonkers, Pleasantville natives each win $50K Whiting literary prizes

Bennett, an assistant professor of English and creative writing at Dartmouth College, has published three books of poetry and literary criticism. Khoury, whose plays have been developed at Playwrights Horizons, Williamstown Theater Festival, and the Eugene O’Neill Playwrights’ Conference, just graduated from medical school. The awards are unique in that the nominees are not aware that they are being considered until the winners are actually announced. It is absolutely surreal, said Bennett, a new father, upon learning he had won. I was excited that we could finally fix the roof. Bennett s award was for a body of work, including Being Property Once Myself, and for his poetry The Sobbing School and Owed which the judges noted radically expands ideas of what it is to be alive in the world, reshuffling hierarchies of knowledge and power and hinting at a new way of being.”

2021 Whiting Awards Honor 10 Soon-To-Be-Big Writers

Originally published on April 14, 2021 7:45 pm The winners of this year s Whiting Awards have been announced; the $50,000 prize is aimed at allowing emerging writers to focus full-time on their work or to branch off in new directions. Each of these winners has a rare literary gift, Whiting Director of Literary Programs Courtney Hodell says via email. Our hope is that the Whiting Award will offer encouragement and support as they continue to dig deep into their art to nurture the work that sings it. This year s group of winners is really a wide-ranging cohort of talent, and that itself is a kind of common thread, Hodell says. So many of these winners follow their muses over, under, and across genre boundaries in a fertile and exciting way. Speaking to the writers after they were selected, we were also struck by the strong sense of community they share. These are brilliant individuals who are attuned to the multitudinous connections that feed their writing and their selves
