In an era where the field was almost exclusively "a man's world", she became the first woman to receive a Pulitzer Prize in a major journalism category, winning in 1937 for correspondence. Her husband's job led to frequent travels abroad, and her career as a journalist became more specialized. In 1921, she approached ''The New York Times'' about the prospect of becoming a freelance contributor from Europe. In 1936, she became the first woman to be appointed to the editorial board of the ''Times''. Her dispatches from Europe that year were recognized with the Pulitzer Prize in 1937.
