[Road Trip] Maria Mazziotti Gillan Chosen as 2009 Connecticut Poetry Circuit Touring Poet

Maria Mazziotti Gillan, author of All That Lies Between Us (Guernica Editions, ISBN 978-1-55071-261-2), has been chosen to serve as the Connecticut Poetry Circuit Touring Poet for fall 2009, and will be visiting a series of colleges in Connecticut to read from her poetry and to speak to students.

The Connecticut Poetry Circuit was established in 1968 to continue the work of the New England Poetry Circuit, which was established in 1964 at the request of the Academy of American Poets. The work of the circuit is guided by a panel of poets: Dick Allen, Clare Rossini, Kate Rushin, and Vivian Shipley. Each year the panel nominates outstanding poets, from which one is chosen. Last year’s poet was Kurt Brown.
