David Graham

 

Get comfortable and join us virtually as David Graham treats us to a poetry reading.

Around these parts, David Graham may be a familiar face.  After teaching literature and writing at several schools, he spent most of his career (29 years) at Ripon College, from which he retired in 2016 as Professor of English and the Helen Swift Neilson Professor of Cultural Studies. After retiring, Graham and his wife moved home to their native upstate NY. They currently live in Glens Falls.

Graham has published poems, essays, and reviews in a wide variety of anthologies and journals, both in print and online; and given numerous presentations and readings in many states. To date he has published seven collections of poetry as well as two anthologies. His two most recent books both appeared in the summer of 2019. The Honey of Earth (Terrapin Books) collects his own most recent poems on a wide variety of themes, including aging, family relations, love, art, small town life, and the complications of memory. Most of the poems included were written in Ripon. The other most recent book is the anthology Local News: Poetry About Small Towns, co-edited with Tom Montag (MWPH Books, Fairwater WI).
