I don't go out of my way to find prize winners, but if I stumble on an article or list of books that recently won one of the non-genre awards, I'll usually look into them.

The genre awards, less so, but I'll still often take a look.

But that's about it. I think Chabon has been the most recent author I've read who has awards under his belt. I ran across him via an NPR interview when Yiddish Policeman's Union came out.
