Produktinformationen "Robert Earl Hayden"
Robert Hayden was the first African-American Poet Laureate of the United States. Born in Detroit, he attended Detroit City College (now Wayne State University) and eventually earned a Master of Arts in English Literature from the University of Michigan. He became a Bahá ' í in 1943, and in 1966, he was awarded grand prize for poetry at the First World Festival of Negro Arts. In 1975, he was appointed Poet Laureate. Mr. Hayden believed that art and literature have the power to unite, illuminate, and inspire across ancestral and cultural lines. In a 1971 interview, he said, " As a Bahá ' í I am committed to belief in the fundamental oneness of all races, the essential oneness of mankind, to the vision of world unity. And these are increasingly powerful influences on my poetry today." It is hoped that this book will introduce the reader to this artistic luminary whose life and poetry will continue to inspire many for generations to come.
