FARMINGTON -- Award-winning poet Cate Marvin will be the first reader in the University of Farmington's 2007-08 Visiting Writers Series, which opens Sept. 18.
Marvin will read from her work at 7:30 p.m. on Sept. 18 in The Landing in the UMF Olsen Student Center.
The reading is free and will be followed by a signing by the author.
Marvin's first book, "World's Tallest Disaster," was chosen by Robert Pinksy for the 2000 Kathryn A. Morton Prize and published by Sarabande Books in 2001. In 2002, she received the Kate Tufts Discovery Prize.
She is co-editor with poet Michael Dumanis of the anthology "Legitimate Dangers: American Poets of the New Century" (Sarabande Books, 2006). Her second book of poems, "Fragment of the Head of a Queen," was published by Sarabande in August 2007.
Marvin teaches poetry writing in Lesley University's Low-Residency M.F.A. Program and is an associate professor in creative writing at the College of Staten Island, City University of New York.
