Cate Marvin reads Oct. 6th!!

Cate Marvin will be arriving from New York to read for 1718 this upcoming Tuesday, October 6th. Marvin has published two books of poetry, including “Fragment of the Head of a Queen,” and co-edited the American poet anthology “Legitimate Dangers.” Marvin has received the Kate Tufts Discovery Prize, a Whiting Award, and has been a 2007 Gregory Millard Fellow. Marvin served as writer in resident at the Lesley University low-residency M.F.A. program and is associate professor in creative writing at the College of Staten Island, City University of New York. Marvin is known not only for her evocative poetry but also for her intimate presence as a reader.

Following Cate’s reading will be student readers Mia Borders, Abi Pollokoff, and Daniel Dekerlegand.

The reading will start at 7, though we encourage you to arrive early for happy hour at the Columns.
