Hill Center is thrilled to announce the return of one of its flagship programs, The Life of a Poet, a quarterly series originally launched in 2013 which offers a rare opportunity to consider a writer’s entire career and explore the major events that have shaped their work. Elizabeth Alexander inaugurated the series in April of 2013 in conversation with Washington Post book critic Ron Charles. We are honored that Dr. Alexander will return this fall to re-inaugurate our new series, and equally delighted that The Life of a Poet will now be curated and hosted by acclaimed poet and editor Kyle Dargan.
