Gala ceremony in New York City
No doubt, prolific author and "literary activist" E. Ethelbert Miller has devoted his life to African-American literature in particular, and American and international writing in general. His over a dozen poetry collections, anthologies, and memoirs have already left their valuable literary mark. His poetry reading series, work as an editor, and radio and television appearances have helped promote other writers.
On February 27, Miller will be honored--along with Francine Prose and Susan Richards Shreve--by Poets and Writers. The event, a gala dinner at Gotham Hall in New York City, will be In Celebration of Writers: Honoring the Barnes & Noble Writers for Writers Award Winners.
Here's a list of E. Ethelbert Miller's books:
Andromeda, The Land of Smiles and the Land of No Smiles, Migrant Worker, Season of Hunger/Cry of Rain. Where are the Love Poems for Dictators?, First Light, Whispers, Secrets and Promises, Fathering Words: The Making of An African American Writer, Buddha Weeping in Winter, and How We Sleep On the Nights We Don't Make Love
Anthologies: Synergy: An Anthology of Washington, D.C. Black Poetry, Women Surviving Massacres and Men, In Search of Color Everywhere, Beyond the Frontier
