Stephen Dunn is the author of seventeen poetry collections, including What Goes On: New and Selected Poems 1995-2009 and, most recently, Here and Now. He was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for his collection Different Hours. He has also been a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award and has received an Academy Award in Literature from the American Academy of Arts and Letters. A Distinguished Professor Emeritus at Richard Stockton College, he lives in Frostburg, Maryland, with his wife, the writer Barbara Hurd.

Stephen Dunn is one of the strongest voices of his generation. His poems wonderfully encapsulate daily experience. They are modest without being small. They include us without being patronizing. They are rich in their craft without being decorative. Not only does one come to care deeply about them, but they are a pleasure to read. --Stephen Dobyns
