Andrew Mason Prize for Most Promising Editor

This annual prize acknowledges and encourages editors starting out on their careers.

It has been offered by the Mason Publishing Trust each year since 2011 to a graduate of the Diploma in Publishing (Applied).

The prize remembers Andrew Mason, a well-known editor who died in 2009. Mason was a widely admired book editor who worked on some of New Zealand’s most significant publications, and was literary editor of the New Zealand Listener from 1981 to 1991.
