The Hugo Award for Best Professional Editor is one of the Hugo Awards given each year for science-fiction or fantasy stories published or translated into English during the previous calendar year. The award is presented to editors of magazines, novels, anthologies, or other works related to science fiction or fantasy. The Best Professional Editor award was first presented in 1973. Since 2007, the award has been split into two categories: Best Editor (Short Form) and Best Editor (Long Form). The Short Form award is for editors of anthologies, collections or magazines, while the Long Form award is for editors of novels. Since 1996, retrospective Hugo Awards (Retro Hugos) have been occasionally awarded for years 50, 75, or 100 years prior in which no awards were given. During the 60 nomination years from, 92 editors have been nominated for the original Best Professional Editor award, the Short Form or Long Form categories, or the Retro Hugos. Gardner Dozois (pictured) has received the most Best Professional Editor awards, with fifteen wins from nineteen nominations for the original award, and one win from two nominations for the Short Form category.
