NPF editorial assistant (and scholar in her own right) Malgorzata Myk has combed the internet for great links about the nine poets who will give keynote readings at the NPF Conference on The Poetry of the 1970s. We'll be sharing her finds in the days leading up to the Conference, so check back regularly.

Next up is Clark Coolidge who reads in the Paul J. Schupf Wing for the Works of Alex Katz at the Colby Museum of Art on Saturday, June 14, 2008 at 11:15am. Attendance is free and open to the public (though seating is limited).

You can learn more about Coolidge at these sites:
