GREGORY ORR is the author of ten collections of poetry, including the forthcoming How Beautiful the Beloved (Copper Canyon Press, 2009) and the recent booklength lyric sequence Concerning the Book that is the Body of the Beloved (Copper Canyon Press, 2005). Among his other volumes of poetry are: The Caged Owl: New and Selected Poems, Orpheus and Eurydice, City of Salt ( Finalist, LA Times Poetry Prize), We Must Make a Kingdom of It, The Red House, Gathering the Bones Together, and Burning the Empty Nests.
He is the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship and two poetry fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts.

CHARLES WRIGHT, who won the Pulitzer Prize in 1998, retired from U.Va. three years ago after 27 years on the creative writing faculty. The University of Virginia Magazine described him as “the poet laureate of twilight,” alluding to his musings on the natural world in his backyard. Wright has published more than 20 collections of poems. His most recent is “Bye-and-Bye: Selected Later Poems,” which comprises poems from his last five books, including the complete text of the book-length poem, “Littlefoot.” Other recent collections from this decade are “Outtakes,” “Sestets,” “Scar Tissue,” “The Wrong End of the Rainbow,” “Buffalo Yoga” and “Negative Blue.” He won a National Book Award for his 1983 volume, “Country Music: Selected Early Poems,” and his 1973 work, “Hard Freight,” was a finalist for the prize.
