Philip Levine named Poet Laureate of the United States

Philip Levine, a former Detroit auto worker has been named the Poet Laureate of the United States.  
Click to watch a video of Levine reading his works.   Be sure to listen to "What Work Is", my favorite.    Books of his poetry are available in the Media Center.  A biography of Levine is available online.  Do you like his poetry?  Do any of his poems speak to you?
