The Yale Literary Magazine, founded in 1836, is the oldest student literary magazine in the United States[1] and publishes poetry and fiction by Yale undergraduates twice per academic year. The Editor-in-Chief position is currently held by Eileen Huang.

The magazine is published biannually. In the spring of 2020, it was published online to accommodate the results of the coronavirus pandemic. In recent years, it has conducted and published interviews with high-profile twentieth and twenty-first-century literary figures such as Junot Diaz, who won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, Art Spiegelman, who won a Pulitzer Prize for his graphic novel memoir Maus, and Paul Muldoon, the poetry editor for The New Yorker, who won a Pulitzer Prize for Poetry.
