The only overlapping categories for the Nobel Prize in Literature and the Pulitzer Prizes in one of the Letters, Drama and Music categories.

Six Pulitzer Prize winners in the Novel/Fiction category (the category name was changed from Novel to Fiction in 1948) and one Pulitzer Prize winner in Drama also won the coveted Nobel Prize in Literature.
