About this title

Synopsis

101 Poets in two significant decades--the 1960s and the 1970s. People read poetry without seeing the faces of the poets. This book has a warm human interest, combining photos of poets with one of their poems, taken on a chance moment, a casual instance of being that can't be captured in formal depictions. Readers can enjoy a new, more approachable look at the man or woman, or may be intrigued to read the work of some poet they now see for the first time. Companion book listing biographies of the 101 poets is "Focus 101." -- Heidelberg Graphics, publisher Poets featured: Randall Ackley, Paula Gunn Allen, Jon Anderson, Marvin Bell, Leonard Bird, Louise Bogan, George Bowcring, Bobby Byrd, Jefferson Carter, John Ciardi, Neil Claremon, Lucille Clifton, Thomas Cobb, Robert J Conley, Robert Creeley, Victor Hernandez Cruz, Michael Cuddihy, Abelardo Delgado, RP Dickey, Norman Dubie, Alan Dugan, Stephen Dunn, Richard Eberhart, Gene Frumkin, Rita Garitano, Dan Gerber, Miguel Gonzilez-Gerth, Larry Goodell, Thom Gunn, Drummond Hadley, Donald Hall, Joy Harjo, Michael Harper, Jim Harrison, George Hitchcock, Ann Marie Huck, James Humphrey, David Ignatow, Lawson Fusao Inada, Jeremy Ingalls, Will Inman, June Jordan, Donald Justice, Roily Kent, Karl Kopp, Maxine Kumin, Philip Levine, C Day Lewis, John Logan, Archibald MacLeish, Carolyn Maisel, Howard McCord, Sandra McPherson, William Meredith, Carol Merrill, Christopher Middleton, John Newlove, John Frederick Nims, Susan North, Steve Orlen, Simon J Ortiz, Raymond R Patterson, Bill Pearlman, Charles Potts, Leroy Quintana, AK Ramanujan, John Crowe Ransom, George Reavey, Peter Redgrove, Marina Rivera, William Roccker, Orlando Romero, William Pitt Root, Jerome Rothenberg, Ricardo Sanchez, Josephine Saunders, Harris Schiff, Richard Shelton, Charles Simic, Gary Snyder, William Stafford, Ruth Stephan, Alan Stephens, Pamela Stewart, Primus St John, Ruth Stone, Mark Strand, Robert Sward, May Swenson, DM Thomas, Tomas Transtromer, Diane Wakoski, David Rafael Wang, Larry Weirather, Richard Wilbur, Peter Wild, CK Williams, Keith Wilson, James Wright, Marguerite Young, and Paul Zimmer
