Gregory Kolovakos Award

The Gregory Kolovakos Award is a literary award given every three years by PEN American Center (the U.S. chapter of International PEN) to a U.S. literary translator, editor, or critic "whose work, in meeting the challenge of cultural difference, extends Gregory Kolovakos's commitment to the richness of Hispanic literature and to expanding its English-language audience". It is primarily intended to recognize translations into English from Spanish, but translations from other Hispanic languages are also eligible.

The monetary amount of the Award is USD $2000. The prize was first given in 1992.
