    Legendary musician Bob Dylan can now add the Pulitzer Prize to his long list of honors.

    Dylan, 66, was awarded a special music citation Monday. The citation noted Dylan's "profound impact on popular music and American culture."

    The Grammy-winning artist's other major honors include an Oscar and a Golden Globe for the song "Things Have Changed" from the 2000 comedy drama "Wonder Boys."

    Other Pulitzer winners Monday included Tracy Letts, who won the Pulitzer Prize for drama for his brutal yet darkly comic play, "August: Osage County," and Junot Diaz for fiction for "The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao."

    Daniel Walker Howe won for history for "What Hath God Wrought: the Transformation of America, 1815-1848," while John Matteson won for biography for "Eden's Outcasts: The Story of Louisa May Alcott and Her Father."

    Saul Friedlander won the general nonfiction award for "The Years of Extermination: Nazi Germany and the Jews, 1939-1945."

    Two prizes were awarded for poetry: Robert Hass for "Time and Materials" and Philip Schultz for "Failure."

    David Lang won the music award for "The Little Match Girl Passion," which premiered Oct. 25, 2007, at Carnegie Hall in New York.
