POETRY READING   FEBRUARY 12, 2006  2PM

MARVIN BELL's poetry has been described as ambitious and without
pretension. The most recent of his 17 books are two poetry collections,
Rampant and Nightworks: Poems 1962-2000. A longtime faculty member at
the University of Iowa Writers Workshop, he leads an annual Urban
Teachers Workshop for the inner city program America SCORES;
collaborates with composers, musicians, filmmakers, and dancers; and
teaches for two low-residency MFA programs. From 2000 to 2004, Mr. Bell
was Iowa's first poet laureate. He has received awards from the Academy
of American Poets, the American Academy of Arts and Letters, and the
American Poetry Review, and has held Guggenheim and NEA Fellowships as
well as Senior Fulbright Appointments to Yugoslavia and Australia. Mr.
Bell has taught at Goddard College and the Universities of Hawaii,
Washington, and Wichita State. He lives in Iowa City and Port Townsend,
Washington.

Born and raised in Los Angeles, REX WILDER has traveled extensively and
lived for extended periods in Tahiti, Normandy, Madrid, and New York
City. He attended Connecticut College, where he graduated with a degree
in Hispanic Studies. Waking Bodies is his recent collection of poetry
published by Red Hen Press in 2006. Wilder now lives in Pacific
Palisades, California, with his wife and three children.
