Northwest Review was first published by the University of Oregon in 1957. The first issue included Ken Kesey’s debut short story “The First Sunday in September.” For the next 54 years, Northwest Review published winners of the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Award, the Booker Prize, and other iconic authors such as Raymond Carver, Louise Erdrich, George Saunders, Joyce Carol Oates, and Ursula K. LeGuin. In 2011, the State of Oregon eliminated funding dedicated to Northwest Review, and the journal went out of print. In the spring of 2020, S. Tremaine Nelson secured permission from the University of Oregon to once again publish the Northwest Review and now serves as the journal’s editor-in-chief and publisher. A fourth generation Oregonian living in Portland, S. Tremaine Nelson is an alumnus of the fiction departments of The Paris Review and The New Yorker and is the founder of the Northwest Review Foundation, a 501(c)3 registered nonprofit dedicated to publishing and promoting the writers and artists of Northwest Review.
Northwest Review is currently undergoing a redesign, hiring a new editorial staff under the supervision of its new editor and a board of literary advisors who will oversee the hiring of a full-time staff.
As of April, submissions are now open electronically for the first time in the magazine’s history, and the next paper edition of the journal will be published in the Fall of 2020.
