Our Board of Directors has between twenty and twenty-five members and provides fiduciary oversight of Graywolf’s operations. We have awarded Board Emeritus status to former board members who have made a significant impact in the history of the press.
The National Council is an informed advisory group of donors and friends across the country who support Graywolf’s efforts on a local basis, especially in the Bay Area, Boston, Chicago, New York, Portland (Oregon), the Twin Cities, and Washington, DC.

“People are often surprised to learn that Graywolf is a non-profit. But it is precisely because they are a nonprofit that they’re able to publish books a commercial house wouldn’t touch. Debut poets. Translated literature. Writers taking real risks. They don’t chase best seller lists. They challenge prevailing wisdom and provoke critical thinking.
In this world, a book is a revolutionary device. An incendiary device. Graywolf books light fires.”

OUR INSTITUTIONAL SUPPORTERS
Our work is made possible by readers and book buyers, and by the generous support of individuals, corporations, foundations, and government agencies, to whom we offer our heartfelt thanks.
This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating Support grant, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
Additional support has been provided by the Amazon Literary Partnership, the Elmer L. & Eleanor J. Anderson Foundation, and the Literary Arts Fund, a project of the National Center for Civic Innovation.
