Max Apple wins major prize

Max Apple--long a member of the Writers House community--has won a 2010 Pew Fellowship in the Arts. The Pew site says this: "Pew Fellowships in the Arts (PFA) was established by The Pew Charitable Trusts in 1991, and annually awards up to 12 fellowships of $60,000 to artists of exemplary talent in the five-county Philadelphia area. The goal of PFA is to assist the region’s most talented artists in furthering and innovating their work by awarding substantial financial support accompanied by a set of customized, focused professional- and career-development resources."
