The Mr. and Mrs. Raymond J. Horowitz Book Prize
Bard Graduate Center welcomes submissions for the Mr. and Mrs. Raymond J.

The prize will reward scholarly excellence and commitment to cross-disciplinary conversation.

The winning author(s) or editor(s) will be chosen by a committee of Bard Graduate Center faculty and will be honored with a symposium on the subject of the book. Submissions must have a 2019 or 2020 publication date.
Three copies of each print title should be sent to the below address along with an entry submission form. For digital publications, please email a copy of the form along with a link to the publication and a PDF of the publication to horowitz.prize@bgc.bard.edu.
