The American Mosaic Journalism Prize is a journalism prize awarded annually to two freelance journalists "for excellence in long-form, narrative, or deep reporting on stories about underrepresented and/or misrepresented groups in the present American landscape".[1][2][3] The award is given by the Heising-Simons Foundation, a family foundation headquartered in Los Altos, CA.[4][5][6]

The American Mosaic Journalism Prize was created in 2018 by the Heising-Simons Foundation.[7][8][6] The winner is selected by ten judges who receive nominations from a confidential network of nominators.[9][10] Winners are awarded an unrestricted cash prize of $100,000,[4][3] making it a larger cash prize than the Pulitzer Prize (which awards $15,000 to winners).[11]
