SIDEBAR TEXT: "WE REMAIN CONVINCED THAT MAINTAINING A WELL-BALANCED PORTFOLIO
....... IS AN IMPORTANT WAY TO HELP YOU REDUCE OVERALL INVESTMENT RISK."


Dear SHAREHOLDER

On behalf of all of us at Nuveen Investments, I'd like to use this first report
of the Nuveen Preferred and Convertible Income Funds to welcome you to the
growing family of Nuveen investors. For more than 100 years, Nuveen has
specialized in offering quality investments to those seeking to accumulate and
preserve wealth. Our mission continues to be to assist you and your financial
advisor by offering the investment services and products that can help you meet
your financial objectives. We thank you for choosing Nuveen Investments as a
partner as you work toward that goal.

Because your Fund's fiscal year ends on July 31, this "annual" report really
covers only about four months of operations for JPC and about one month for
JQC. However, we believe both Funds are off to good starts, and are already well
positioned to meet their objectives of high current income and total return
potential. For more details, I encourage you to read the portfolio managers'
interview that immediately follows this letter.

While the oldest of these two Funds was barely more than four months old as
of July 31, 2003, both already have experienced a good deal of market price
volatility. We know that the ups and downs that come with this volatility may
lead some investors to consider increasing or decreasing their investments in
their Fund. While we encourage you to take a strong interest in the performance
of your investment portfolio, I urge you to first discuss any investment changes
with your financial advisor before you act. We remain convinced that maintaining
a well-balanced portfolio, structured and monitored with the help of an
investment professional, is an important way to help you reduce overall
investment risk and position yourself to achieve your long-term financial goals.
In this context, the preferred and convertible securities in your Nuveen Fund
can be important building blocks in a portfolio crafted to perform well through
a variety of market conditions.

I also urge you to consider receiving future Fund reports and other information
electronically via the Internet and e-mail rather than in hard copy. Not only
will you be able to receive the information faster, but this also may help lower
Fund expenses. Sign up is quick and easy -- see the inside front cover of this
report for detailed instructions.

Again, thank you for the confidence you have shown in Nuveen Investments. We
look forward to reporting on the performance of your Fund in the months and
years ahead.

Sincerely,

/s/ Timothy R. Schwertfeger

Timothy R. Schwertfeger
Chairman of the Board

NUVEEN CLOSED-END EXCHANGE-TRADED FUNDS (JPC, JQC)

Managers' PERSPECTIVE

The Nuveen Preferred and Convertible Income Funds are managed by Nuveen
Institutional Advisory Corp. (NIAC), and sub-advised by a team of specialists
from Spectrum Asset Management, Inc., Froley, Revy Investment Co., Inc., and
NIAC. Spectrum, an affiliate of Principal CapitalSM, manages the preferred
securities portions of the Funds' portfolios. Froley, Revy, one of the oldest
firms specializing in convertible securities, manages that portion of both
Fund's portfolios, while NIAC manages the high yield and other debt instruments
in both Funds. Here representatives from Spectrum, Froley, Revy and NIAC talk
about general economic conditions and their management strategy for the period
ended July 31, 2003.



WHAT WERE THE GENERAL MARKET CONDITIONS BETWEEN MARCH 2003 (THE INCEPTION OF
JPC) AND JULY 31, 2003?
The first months of this period were characterized generally by a steady rise in
price and fall in yield for most fixed income investments. This pattern reversed
itself dramatically in July 2003, with price declines and yield increases that
more than offset the gains of the previous three months.

This can be seen easily in the history of ten-year U.S. Treasury bonds. At the
end of March 2003, when JPC began investing its initial assets, the ten-year
U.S. Treasury was yielding 3.80%. By the end of June, when JQC began investing
its assets, these bonds had continued to rally, pushing their yield to 3.52%. As
of July 31, 2003, the ten-year Treasury yield had climbed almost 100 basis
points to 4.40%.

These market conditions affected each of the Funds' three asset classes
differently. Preferred securities generally performed well when compared with
many other types of fixed-income investments from March through July 2003.
However, this asset class still suffered across the board price declines.
Convertible securities performed much better. During the April - July 2003 time
frame, convertible securities generally advanced, with the Merrill Lynch All
Convertible Index up 10.95% over those four months. The Merrill Lynch High-Yield
Master Index returned 5.62% for the month of April 2003, 1.08% during May and
2.73% in June. However, the Index dropped -1.43% in July.

Generally, there was adequate supply of securities in all three asset classes
over this period to facilitate the investing of both Funds' assets.

HOW HAVE YOU BEEN INVESTING THE ASSETS OF BOTH FUNDS?
For JPC, finding attractive yields among the high quality preferred securities
we favor was the primary challenge as bonds rallied through much of the spring.
A heavy new issuer calendar for preferred securities created some opportunities
in both the primary and secondary markets and Spectrum was able to invest in a
timely manner. The focus of the convertible securities portion of the Funds,
managed by Froley, Revy, was on balancing income opportunities with the
potential for capital appreciation, while maintaining a roughly 50% weight (for
this portion of the portfolio) in investment grade securities. For the high
yield portion of the portfolio, NIAC focused on credits with strong fundamental
business models, diversified revenue streams and limited earnings volatility.
Industry and credit diversification were a key focus, with investments coming
from sectors such as gaming/lodging, home-building, retail, media and food.

As of July 31, 2003, JQC was only about one month old. All three sub-advisers
were still in the process of investing their initial allocations as of the end
of the reporting period. The back-up in the fixed-income markets during July
2003 was providing some attractive yield opportunities for preferred and high
yield securities, while the building consensus around improved equity market
prospects was creating some opportunities for convertible securities investing.

WHAT WILL BE YOUR STRATEGY FOR THE FUNDS GOING FORWARD?
In an uncertain environment, we will continue to invest the Funds' assets in
ways that we think will enhance their ability to provide attractive income and
total returns. We plan to retain our research-oriented approach toward finding
securities within each of the Funds' asset classes, and we will continue to seek
opportunities to enhance the diversification of each Fund's portfolio.

   INDEPENDENT AUDITORS




THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS
NUVEEN PREFERRED AND CONVERTIBLE INCOME FUND
NUVEEN PREFERRED AND CONVERTIBLE INCOME FUND 2


We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolios of investments, of Nuveen Preferred and Convertible Income Fund,
and Nuveen Preferred and Convertible Income Fund 2 as of July 31, 2003, and the
related statements of operations, changes in net assets and the financial
highlights for the periods indicated therein. These financial statements and
financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and
financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included
confirmation of investments owned as of July 31, 2003, by correspondence with
the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures when
replies from brokers were not received. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial positions of
Nuveen Preferred and Convertible Income Fund, and Nuveen Preferred and
Convertible Income Fund 2 at July 31, 2003, and the results of their operations,
the changes in their net assets and the financial highlights for the periods
indicated therein in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States.

                                   FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Funds covered in this report and their corresponding Common share New York
Stock Exchange symbols are Nuveen Preferred and Convertible Income Fund (JPC)
and Nuveen Preferred and Convertible Income Fund 2 (JQC). The Funds are
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as diversified,
closed-end management investment companies.

Prior to the commencement of operations of the Funds, each Fund had no
operations other than those related to organizational matters, the initial
capital contribution of $100,275 per Fund by Nuveen Institutional Advisory Corp.
(the "Adviser"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Nuveen Investments, Inc., and the
recording of the organization expenses ($11,500 per Fund) and their
reimbursement by Nuveen Investments, LLC, also a wholly owned subsidiary of
Nuveen Investments, Inc.

Each Fund seeks to provide high current income by investing primarily in a
portfolio of preferred securities, convertible securities, and related
instruments. Each Fund may also invest in other debt instruments and common
stocks acquired upon conversion of a convertible security.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Funds in the preparation of their financial statements in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Securities Valuation

Exchange-listed securities are generally valued at the last sales price on the
securities exchange on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities
traded on a securities exchange for which there are no transactions on a given
day or securities not listed on a securities exchange are valued at the mean of
the closing bid and asked prices. Securities traded on Nasdaq are valued at the
Nasdaq Official Closing Price. The prices of fixed-income securities are
provided by a pricing service approved by the Funds' Board of Trustees and based
on the mean between the bid and asked prices. When price quotes are not readily
available, the pricing service establishes fair market value based on prices of
comparable securities. If it is determined that market prices for a security are
unavailable or inappropriate, the Board of Trustees of the Funds, or its
designee, may establish a fair value for the security. Short-term securities are
valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

Securities Transactions

Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and
losses from such transactions are determined on the specific identification
method. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis may have
extended settlement periods. Any securities so purchased are subject to market
fluctuation during this period. The Funds have instructed the custodian to
segregate assets with a current value at least equal to the amount of the
when-issued and delayed delivery purchase commitments. At July 31, 2003,
Preferred and Convertible Income 2 (JQC) had outstanding delayed delivery
purchase commitments of $26,000,000.

Investment Income

Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income, which
includes the amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts for financial
reporting purposes, is recorded on an accrual basis.

Income Taxes

The Funds intend to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code
applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all
of its net investment income to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income
tax provision is required.

Dividends and Distributions to Common Shareholders

Dividends from net investment income are declared monthly. Net realized capital
gains from investment transactions, if any, are distributed to shareholders not
less frequently than annually. Furthermore, capital gains are distributed only
to the extent they exceed available capital loss carryforwards.

Distributions to Common shareholders of net investment income and net realized
capital gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount and
timing of distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax
regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States.

Interest Rate Swap Transactions

The Funds are authorized to enter into hedging transactions, including interest
rate swap transactions. The Funds may use interest rate swaps with the intent to
reduce or eliminate the risk that an increase in short-term interest rates could
have on Common share net earnings as a result of leverage. The Funds did not
enter into any interest rate swap transactions during the fiscal year ended July
31, 2003.

Short Sales

The Funds may make short sales of securities if, at all times when a short
position is open, the Funds own at least an equal amount of such securities or
securities convertible into or exchangeable for, without payment of any further
consideration, securities of the same issuer as, and at least equal in amount
to, the securities sold short.

The Funds will borrow the securities sold short from a broker-dealer through
which the short sale is executed and the broker-dealer will deliver such
securities, on behalf of the Funds, to the purchaser of such securities. Such
broker-dealer will be entitled to retain the proceeds from the short sale until
the Funds deliver to such broker-dealer the securities sold short. In addition,
the Funds will be required to pay the broker-dealer the amount of any dividends
or interest paid on securities sold short. Finally, to secure its obligation to
deliver to such broker-dealer the securities sold short, the Funds have
instructed the custodian to segregate assets in an equivalent amount of the
securities sold short or securities convertible into or exchangeable for such
securities without the payment of additional consideration.

Short sales may protect the Funds against the risk of losses in the value of
their portfolio securities because any unrealized losses with respect to such
portfolio securities should be wholly or partially offset by a corresponding
gain in the short position. However, any potential gain in such portfolio
securities should be wholly or partially offset by a corresponding loss in the
short position. The extent to which such gains or losses are offset will depend
upon the amount of securities sold short relative to the amount the Funds own,
either directly or indirectly, and, in the case where the Funds own convertible
securities, changes in the conversion premium. The Funds will incur transaction
costs in connection with short sales.

Repurchase Agreements

In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, it is each Fund's
policy that its custodian take possession of the underlying collateral
securities, the fair value of which exceeds the principal amount of the
repurchase transaction, including accrued interest, at all times. If the seller
defaults, and the fair value of the collateral declines, realization of the
collateral may be delayed or limited.

Other Derivative Financial Instruments

The Funds may invest in options and futures contracts, credit derivative
instruments, and currency exchange transactions for the purpose of hedging their
portfolios. Although the Funds are authorized to invest in such financial
instruments, and may do so in the future, they did not make any such investments
during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2003.

Offering Costs

Nuveen Investments, LLC has agreed to pay all Common share offering costs (other
than the sales load) that exceed $.03 per Common share for Preferred and
Convertible Income (JPC), and Preferred and Convertible Income 2 (JQC).
Preferred and Convertible Income's (JPC), and Preferred and Convertible Income
2's (JQC) share of offering costs ($1,557,409, and $1,939,104, respectively)
were recorded as a reduction of the proceeds from the sale of Common shares.

Costs incurred by Preferred and Convertible Income (JPC) in connection with its
offering of FundPreferred shares ($14,569,487) was recorded as a reduction to
paid-in surplus.

Custodian Fee Credit

Each Fund has an arrangement with the custodian bank whereby certain custodian
fees and expenses are reduced by credits earned on each Fund's cash on deposit
with the bank. Such deposit arrangements are an alternative to overnight
investments.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and
decreases in net assets applicable to Common shares from operations during the
reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

4. INCOME TAX INFORMATION

The following information is presented on an income tax basis based on the
information currently available to the Funds. Differences between amounts for
financial statement and federal income tax purposes are primarily due to the
recognition of income on certain securities, which are treated as debt
securities for income tax purposes and equity securities for financial statement
purposes, and timing differences in recognizing certain gains and losses on
security transactions.

At July 31, 2003, the cost of investments were as follows:

*Net ordinary income consists of net taxable income derived from dividends,
interest, and net short-term capital gains, if any.

The Preferred and Convertible Income 2 (JQC) has elected to defer net realized
losses from investments incurred from November 1, 2002 through July 31, 2003
("post-October losses") in accordance with Federal income tax regulations. The
Fund has $1,550,040 of post-October losses that are treated as having arisen in
the following fiscal year.

Calculation of certain of the amounts presented above (namely, undistributed net
ordinary income for tax purposes) involves the application of complex aspects of
the Internal Revenue Code to certain securities held by the Funds. In
calculating the amount of taxable income derived from these securities,
management made assumptions as to the correct tax treatment of those securities
and made estimates about the tax characteristics of income received from those
securities, based on information currently available to the Funds. The use of
these assumptions and estimates will not affect the qualification of the Funds
as regulated investment companies under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue
Code, nor is it expected that these assumptions and estimates will be used in
computing taxable income for purposes of preparing the federal and state income
and excise tax returns.

5. MANAGEMENT FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Under each Fund's investment management agreement with the Adviser, each Fund
pays an annual management fee, payable monthly, at the rates set forth below,
which are based upon each Fund's average daily managed assets. "Managed Assets"
means the average daily net assets of each Fund including assets attributable to
FundPreferred shares and the principal amount of borrowings.

For Managed Assets over $2 billion                                        .8000
===============================================================================


The management fee compensates the Adviser for overall investment advisory and
administrative services and general office facilities. The Adviser has entered
into Sub-Advisory Agreements with Spectrum Asset Management, Inc. ("Spectrum"),
and Froley, Revy Investment Co., Inc. (Froley, Revy). Spectrum manages the
portion of the Fund's investment portfolio allocated to preferred securities
while Froley, Revy manages the portion of the investment portfolio allocated to
convertible securities. Spectrum and Foley, Revy are compensated for their
services to the Funds from the management fee paid to the Adviser. The Adviser
is responsible for the overall strategy and asset allocation decisions as well
as managing the portion of the investment portfolio allocated to other debt
securities.

The Funds pay no compensation directly to those of its Trustees who are
affiliated with the Adviser or to its officers, all of whom receive remuneration
for their services to the Funds from the Advisers.

SIDEBAR TEXT: NUVEEN MAKES REINVESTING EASY. A PHONE CALL IS ALL IT TAKES TO SET
UP YOUR REINVESTMENT ACCOUNT.



NUVEEN CLOSED-END EXCHANGE-TRADED FUNDS DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN

Your Nuveen Closed-End Exchange-Traded Fund allows you to conveniently reinvest
dividends and/or capital gains distributions in additional fund shares.

By choosing to reinvest, you'll be able to invest money regularly and
automatically, and watch your investment grow through the power compounding. It
is important to note that an automatic reinvestment plan does not ensure a
profit, nor does it protect you against loss in a declining market.

EASY AND CONVENIENT

To make recordkeeping easy and convenient, each month you'll receive a statement
showing your total dividends and distributions, the date of investment, the
shares acquired and the price per share, and the total number of shares you own.

HOW SHARES ARE PURCHASED

The shares you acquire by reinvesting will either be purchased on the open
market or newly issued by the Fund. If the shares are trading at or above net
asset value at the time of valuation, the Fund will issue new shares at 95% of
the then-current market price or at net asset value, whichever is higher. If the
shares are trading at less than net asset value, shares for your account will be
purchased on the open market. Dividends and distributions received to purchase
shares in the open market will normally be invested shortly after the dividend
payment date. No interest will be paid on dividends and distributions awaiting
reinvestment. Because the market price of shares may increase before purchases
are completed, the average purchase price per share may exceed the market price
at the time of valuation, resulting in the acquisition of fewer shares than if
the dividend or distribution had been paid in shares issued by the Fund. A pro
rata portion of any applicable brokerage commissions on open market purchases
will be paid by Plan participants. These commissions usually will be lower than
those charged on individual transactions.

FLEXIBILITY

You may change your distribution option or withdraw from the Plan at any time,
should your needs or situation change. Should you withdraw, you can receive a
certificate for all whole shares credited to your reinvestment account and cash
payment for fractional shares, or cash payment for all reinvestment account
shares, less brokerage commissions and a $2.50 service fee.

You can reinvest whether your shares are registered in your name, or in the name
of a brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee. Ask your investment advisor if his
or her firm will participate on your behalf. Participants whose shares are
registered in the name of one firm may not be able to transfer the shares to
another firm and continue to participate in the Plan.

The Fund reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan at any time. Although
the Fund reserves the right to amend the Plan to include a service charge
payable by the participants, there is no direct service charge to participants
in the Plan at this time.

For more information on the Nuveen Automatic Reinvestment Plan or to enroll in
or withdraw from the Plan, speak with your financial advisor or call us at (800)
257-8787.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS USED IN THIS REPORT

Average Annual Total Return: This is a commonly used method to express an
investment's performance over a particular, usually multi-year time period. It
expresses the return (including change in NAV and reinvested dividends) that
would have been necessary on an annual basis to equal the investment's actual
performance over the time period being considered.

Net Asset Value (NAV): A fund's NAV is calculated by subtracting the liabilities
of the fund from its total assets and then dividing the remainder by the number
of shares outstanding. Fund NAVs are calculated at the end of each business day.

---------
Each Fund intends to repurchase shares of its own common or preferred stock in
the future at such times and in such amounts as is deemed advisable. No shares
were repurchased during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2003. Any future
repurchases will be reported to shareholders in the next annual or semiannual
report.

ITEM 7.  DISCLOSURE OF PROXY VOTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR CLOSED-END
MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT COMPANIES

The registrant has adopted the proxy voting policies and procedures of its
Sub-Advisers as described below.

Spectrum Asset Management: Spectrum's policies seek to ensure that proxies are
voted solely in the best economic interests of the registrant and without undue
influence from parties that may have an economic interest in the outcome of a
proxy vote. Spectrum classifies proxy voting into three broad categories:
Routine Administrative Items, Special Interest Issues, and Issues Having the
Potential for Significant Economic Impact. Once it has analyzed and identified
each issue as belonging in a particular category, Spectrum will cast the
client's vote in accordance with the guidelines developed for that particular
category.

On any ocassion when a proxy vote presents a potential conflict of interest,
Spectrum will review the matter and disclose the conflict to the client(s) to
obtain prior to voting.

Froley, Revy Investment Co.: Froley, Revy has adopted a proxy voting policy
which requires that proxies be voted in the best ultimate long-term economic
interests of the Fund. Froley, Revy's primary consideration in deciding how to
vote a proxy is the ultimate eceonomic impact of a proxy proposal on the value
of the comapny's stock based on Froley, Revy's independent analysis of the
Stock's investment considerations.

Froley, Revy utilizes a proxy committee made up of portfolio managers and
research analysts. With respect to each proxy issue, the committee will analyze
the economic impact on the company of voting in favor or against the proposal.
Where proxy voting involves a potential conflict of interests, the committee
shall disclose its conflict to the client and allow the client an opportunity to
approve the recommended vote based upon the committee's communicated rationale.

Symphony Asset Management: Symphony uses the services of Institutional
Shareholder Services ("ISS"), an independent proxy voting service, which handles
all proxy voting for Symphony client accounts, including the registrant. The
proxy voting policies and procedures of ISS are reviewed and approved each year
by Symphony.
