The Pulitzer Prize Board added an Editorial Cartoon category in 1922. Most of the winners have been single-panel illustrations, but the Board deviated from their usual pattern twice, selecting syndicated comic strips instead of standard editorial Cartoons.

The first comic strip to win a Pulitzer was Doonesbury, in 1975, written and drawn by Garry Trudeau (Universal Press Syndicate). Berke Breathed (The Washington Post Writers Group) won the second Pulitzer for his syndicated comic, Bloom County, in 1987.

Robert Frost(1874-1963) Frost, the best known and most beloved American poet of the 20th century, won the Pulitzer Prize four times for "New Hampshire" (1924), "Collected Poems" (1931), "A Further Range" (1937) and "A Witness Tree" (1943). Much of Frost's work dealt with the life and landscape of New England. He was a poet of traditional verse forms and metric, avoiding the poetic movements of his time. Frost taught primarily at Amherst, 1917-1963. He received 44 honorary degrees, many government tributes and the Bollingen Prize posthumously.
