An important period for the journal was 1928-1958 with Solomon Lefschetz as editor. During this time, Annals became an increasingly well-known and respected journal. The rise of Annals, in turn, stimulated American mathematics.

Princeton University continued to publish the Annals on its own until 1933, when the Institute for Advanced Study took joint editorial control. Since 1998 it has been available in an electronic edition, alongside its regular print edition.
