Joseph Pulitzer was born in 1847 in Mako, Hungary. He emigrated to the United States when he was seventeen years
old, and was naturalised on his twentieth birthday. He spent his career in journalism working in the mid-west and New
York. From 1871 he was also the owner or part-owner of many newspaper. His most famous newspaper was the New
York World (which many believe was the model for the Daily Planet of the Superman stories). The World campaigned
against corruption, and exposed many scandals. It was also a strong supporter of the rights of the working man.

In later life, Joseph Pulitzer collapsed from overwork, and lost his sight. He became dedicated to improving the quality
of journalism in America, and donated $1 million to Columbia University to found a school of journalism. However, his
most significant contribution was the establishment of the Pulitzer prizes in his will.

These prizes for excellence in journalism have been given every year since 1917 by Columbia University. Since 1942,
there have been extra categories for press photography, and later still for criticism, feature writing and commentary prize
was originally $500, but today the winners of the prize receive a gold medal. However, the real value of the prize is that it
confirms that the journalist who has received the award is the best American journalist of the year – a fact that is worth
much more than $500 to the journalist and to the newspaper that employs him or her.

They don’t study, but they travel together. Dolphins are mammals, not fish, but they swim together in a school. Dolphins talk to the other dolphins in the school.

They tell when they are happy or sad or afraid. They say ‘welcome’ when a dolphin comes back to the school. They talk when they play. They make a few sounds above water. They make many more sounds under the water. People cannot hear these sounds because they are very, very high. Scientist make tapes of the sounds and study them.

Sometimes people catch a dolphin for a large aquarium. (An aquarium is a zoo for fish). People can watch the dolphins in a show. Dolphins don’t like to be away from school in aquarium. They are sad and lonely. There are many stories about dolphins. They say that dolphins bring good luck. Many people believe this.
