Longwood Authors Series lecture
One of the most celebrated contemporary poets in America, whose turbulent works often use variations in form and punctuation to underscore physical and emotional turmoil, will anchor the Longwood Authors Series in an unmissable lecture this spring.
Frank Bidart, a poet who began his career in the 1970s and gained widespread critical success with his 1983 work “The Sacrifice,” won both the 2017 National Book Award and the 2018 Pulitzer Prize for his most recent collection Half-Light: Collected Poems 1965-2016.
