Interesting chart, but it would be even more interesting if you gave us a second one, sorted by age instead of by year in which the award was bestowed. :)

In this case, I can indulge you (since what you suggest is the way I'd built the chart first; then I thought it would also show trends the way I first published it).

So now you can compare them: enjoy!

Also, it might be interesting to see time between first published story and receiving the award.

Interestingly, no "full-time" editors have made it. Both Pohl and Knight did lots of editing, and many of the others have dabbled in some editing.

Now, to refine it even further, the YEAR they won the award, that way we'll know who the first winner was. Is the Grandmaster Award an annual thing?
