The University has awarded Woodruff with the 2017 John Steinbeck Award, which he called an incredible honor.
"He's a man who is a hero for everyone that is in love with literature. And so it's a man I've known on these pieces of paper for all these years. The thought that I'd get an award in his name, in his honor, is the greatest gift I think I'd ever have gotten," said Woodruff.
