The Pulitzer prizes for 2025 were announced. The Public Service category was awarded to ProPublica, for urgent reporting by Kavitha Surana, Lizzie Presser, Cassandra Jaramillo and Stacy Kranitz, about pregnant women who died after doctors delayed urgently needed care for fear of violating vague “life of the mother” exceptions in states with strict abortion laws.
Among the other prize recipients is Author Tessa Hulls, who was the winner of the 2025 Pulitzer Prize in the memoir or autobiography category for her first book, the graphic novel “Feeding Ghosts,” about her family’s complex, continent-spanning history. Pulitzer Prize administrator Marjorie Miller, described “Feeding Ghosts” as “an affecting work of literary art and discovery whose illustrations bring to life three generations of Chinese women — the author, her mother and grandmother — and the experience of trauma handed down with family histories.” Hulls is from Seattle WA.
