Sonora Review is a biannual graduate student-run literary magazine that was established in the fall of 1980.
Each issue is produced by graduate student volunteers in the Creative Writing Department at the University of Arizona.
Former staff members include Antonya Nelson, Robert Boswell, Richard Russo, Tony Hoagland, and David Foster Wallace.
Work originally printed in the Sonora Review has appeared in Best of the West and Best American Poetry, and has won O. Henry Awards and Pushcart Prizes.
Outside judges choose the winners, who each receive $1,000 and are published in the magazine.
