Autorenporträt
James Plath is R. Forrest Colwell Chair and Professor of English at Illinois Wesleyan University, where he has taught since 1988. In a past life he edited the award-winning Clockwatch Review: a journal of the arts and directed the Hemingway Days Writers' Workshop & Conference in Key West. A published poet, fiction writer, and journalist, Plath was invited to lecture as a Fulbright Scholar at the University of the West Indies-Cave Hill Campus, in Barbados for a semester, and these poems grew out of that experience. His poetry was previously collected in Courbet, on the Rocks (White Eagle Coffee Store Press, 1994) and included in City of the Big Shoulders: An Anthology of Chicago Poetry and Men of Our Time: An Anthology of Male Poetry in Contemporary America. Also the author-editor of six scholarly books on Ernest Hemingway, John Updike, Ray Carver, and the film Casablanca, Plath is the happily married father of six and grandfather of seven.
