Question

Which sentence is written correctly?

A.

B.
Pulitzer Prize winner Gwendolyn Brooks was born in 1917.
C.
Pulitzer Prize winner Gwendolyn Brooks, was born in 1917.
D.
Pulitzer Prize winner, Gwendolyn Brooks, was born in 1917.

Answer 1

B. Pulitzer Prize winner Gwendolyn Brooks was born in 1917.

Option B is the correct sentence because it uses proper punctuation, separating the descriptive phrase "Pulitzer Prize winner" from the name "Gwendolyn Brooks" with no unnecessary commas. The other options either have unnecessary commas or are missing a necessary comma.
