William James Collins (born March 22, 1941) is an American poet who served as the Poet Laureate of the United States from 2001 to 2003. He was a Distinguished Professor at Lehman College of the City University of New York, retiring in 2016. Collins was recognized as a Literary Lion of the New York Public Library (1992) and selected as the New York State Poet for 2004 through 2006. In 2016, Collins was inducted into the American Academy of Arts and Letters. As of 2020, he is a teacher in the MFA program at Stony Brook Southampton. In 1966, James Wright (1927-1980) took a teaching job at Hunter College. One year later, he remarried, to sculptor Edith Anne Crunk (known as Annie in his later poems), the source of inspiration for many of his later poems. Wright continued to write and publish poetry until the very year of his death from cancer in 1980. Annie rallied her husband's friends and peers to help edit and publish James Wright's final work, This Journey, in 1982. Provenance: We purchased this book DIRECTLY from (recently deceased) Annie Wright, widow of poet James Wright, via The Starr Library in Rhinebeck, New York. RAREA2005ABCR - 05/26 - HK3558.
