Owen Wister Award is an annual award from the Western Writers of America given to lifelong contributions to the field of Western literature. Named for writer Owen Wister (The Virginian; 1902), it is given for "Outstanding Contributions to the American West".[1] Originally given for "best book of the year", it was expanded in 1967 to include anyone advancing Western literature.[1] From 1961 to 1990 it was called the Saddleman Award (sculptor Spero Anargyros; polished bronze statuette of a cowboy in Levi’s, saddle slung over his right shoulder, branding iron in his left hand ) and sponsored by Levi Strauss & Co.. After Levi Strauss dropped its sponsorship, the award was retitled the Owen Wister Award for "Lifetime Achievement" in Western history and literature. From 1991 to 1994 recipients received an engraved bronze figure of a cowboy, since 1994 winners have received a bronze buffalo design on wood base from sculptor Robert H. Duffie.[1] Contents 1 Winners 1.1 Saddleman 1.2 Owen Wister 2 References Winners List of recipients of the Saddleman and Owen Wister.[1] Saddleman Saddleman honorees are: 1961: Will Henry 1962: Jeanne Williams 1963: Fred Grove 1964: Mari Sandoz 1965: Benjamin Capps 1966: Alvin M.
