About this Event

The PEN/Bernard and Ann Malamud Award for Excellence in the Short Story is one of the nation’s most distinguished prizes for the short story. This year, we are honoring Ted Chiang in a ceremony that will feature a reading, a conversation with author Jung Yun, and remarks by Janna Malamud Smith, Bernard and Ann Malamud’s daughter. The ceremony will be followed by a book signing and a reception with light refreshments.

This evening is hosted in partnership with the MFA Program in Creative Writing at American University.
