Poet, Lecturer, Teacher
Benjamin Myers was the 2015-2016 Poet Laureate of the State of Oklahoma and is the author of three books of poetry and of numerous articles, essays, and reviews. He is a frequent speaker at conferences and literary festivals around the country.
"Benjamin Myers delights and surprises us by his startling imagery and technical skill, but even more by a rueful awareness of the swiftness of time, and the wonder of the ordinary events that fill it."
- Lynne Sharon Schwartz, author of Ruined by Reading
