Collier's Information

Collier’s magazine, founded in 1888 by Irish immigrant Peter Collier, was launched as a magazine of "fiction, fact, sensation, wit, humor, and news", and we became known widely for our investigative journalism and social reform-seeking values. Collier’s has always commissioned famous writers including Winston Churchill, Ernest Hemingway, Sinclair Lewis, Jack London, F. Scott Fitzgerald, J. D. Salinger, John Steinbeck, Pearl S. Buck, and Kurt Vonnegut to report on historical events, such as World War I and the Spanish Civil War, political events, or to write a short story or serialization of a novel. We also published famous articles like “The Great American Fraud” and Upton Sinclair’s “Is Chicago Meat Clean?”, which eventually led to the Senate Meat Inspection Act of 1906. All of these articles and stories have shaped and contributed to Collier’s ultimate goal: to seek the truth. Now, Collier’s, a staple of American literature, will resume publication in Fall 2011, helping to further its roots in literature and continue its legacy of interesting and compelling stories and events that inform and shape our lives. Collier’s invites you -- the reader, the writer, the artist -- to join in its return to the forefront of American popular literature. We welcome your submissions!
