The 2024 class of the MacArthur Foundation fellows emphasizes storytelling and artistic expression with more writers and artists included than previous years, alongside scientists.
Marlies Carruth, director of the MacArthur Fellows Program, noted that the variety and strength of nominations in the literary arts reflect a zeitgeist that seeks to resurrect untold stories.
The MacArthur Foundation maintains a policy of confidentiality during the nomination process to ensure honest evaluations from recommenders and peers, adding complexity to contacting recipients.
The prestigious $800,000 grants are awarded to 22 recipients, allowing them the freedom to utilize the funds without constraints.
