How cool. Bob Dylan wins a Pulitizer Prize for his contributions to Americana.

From the Associated Press:

tt_poster_72.jpgNEW YORK (AP) — Thanks to Bob Dylan, rock 'n' roll has finally broken through the Pulitzer wall. Dylan, the most acclaimed and influential songwriter of the past half century, who more than anyone brought rock from the streets to the lecture hall, received an honorary Pulitzer Prize on Monday, cited for his "profound impact on popular music and American culture, marked by lyrical compositions of extraordinary poetic power."
