W.D. Snodgrass, 1926-2009: Pulitzer Winning Poet and International Society of Poets Seminar Host 2008

I was nominated for Poet of the Year 2008 by the International Society of Poets. The Las Vegas Convention was very inspiring. Poets from all over the world attended.

I had the honor of attending W.D. Snodgrass, Pulitzer Prize Winners Poets seminar. He was 83 when he died last week.

His Pulitzer Prize is from his first book "Heart's Needle" in 1960. W.D. Snodgrass also was a professor at several universities, and like myself has two master's degrees.

W.D. Snodgrass, thank you for sharing your work, secrets of the craft, and time with aspiring poets like myself.
