The Visiting Writers Series is delighted to invite the ���߲ݴ�ý community to a reading and conversation with award-winning poet Timothy Liu.

The event is at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 20, in the Athletic Hall of Fame in the Reilly Center. Refreshments will be provided.

Timothy Liu (Liu Ti Mo) was born in 1965 in San Jose, California, to immigrant parents from Mainland China. He is the author of 12 books of poems, including “Of Thee I Sing,” selected by Publishers Weekly as a 2004 Book-of-the-Year; “Say Goodnight,” a 1998 PEN Open Book Margins Award; and “Vox Angelica,” which won the 1992 Poetry Society of America’s Norma Farber First Book Award. He has also edited “Word of Mouth: An Anthology of Gay American Poetry.”

Translated into a dozen languages, Liu’s poems have appeared in such places as Best American Poetry, Bomb, Kenyon Review, The Nation, Paris Review, Ploughshares, Poetry, The Pushcart Prize, Virginia Quarterly Review and The Yale Review. His journals and papers are archived in the Berg Collection at the New York Public Library. He teaches at State University of New York at New Paltz and Vassar College.

The event is supported by the ���߲ݴ�ý’s Department of English, Literary Publishing and Editing Program, and Visiting Scholars Committee.
