History

edit

Founded[1] by Daniel Bourne in 1979 in Bloomington, Indiana, the magazine progressed from a carbon copied pamphlet to a professionally produced literary magazine that won Bourne the Ohioana Library Association's Award for Editorial Excellence in 1992.[2]

Receiving grants from Ohio Arts Council and relying on student editors to sift through the over 3,000 manuscripts received each year, the Artful Dodge published writers such as Czesław Miłosz, William S. Burroughs, Giannina Braschi, Charles Simic, Naomi Shihab Nye, and Ronald Wallace, and interviews with Jorge Luis Borges, Czesław Miłosz, W. S. Merwin, Nathalie Sarraute, Gwendolyn Brooks, William Least Heat-Moon, Michael Dorris, Tim O'Brien, and Stuart Dybek.[3]
