Baraka, Amiri, Baraka UPI/Corbis-Bettmann also called IMAMU AMIRI BARAKA, original name (until 1968) (EVERETT) LEROI JONES (b. Oct. 7, 1934, Newark, N.J., U.S.), playwright, poet, novelist, and essayist who wrote of the experiences and anger of black Americans with an affirmation of black life. A graduate of Howard University (1953), Baraka published his first major collection of poetry, Preface to a Twenty Volume Suicide Note, in 1961. The poems in The Dead Lecturer (1964) are notable for their strong imagery and lyrical treatment of violence. This was followed by Black Art Black Magic (1969), and many subsequent verse collections. Some of Baraka's poems reflect his interest in blues and jazz, which he wrote about in Blues People: Negro Music in White America (1963) and Black Music In 1964 Baraka's play Dutchman appeared off-Broadway and won critical acclaim. In Dutchman, an encounter between a white woman and a black intellectual exposes the suppressed anger and hostility of American blacks toward the dominant white culture. Later that year Baraka's plays The Slave and The Toilet were also produced. He wrote many other plays and published an autobiographical novel

Media Introduction "Poet, dramatist, essayist, and critic, Amiri Baraka (formerly Le Roi Jones) is a major contemporary author. As both theorist and practitioner he was the central figure. . . of the 1960s' Black Arts Movement, a literary movement dedicated to racially focused art. . . In addition to being a prime influence on other poets and dramatists of his time, Baraka has also created an original body of work that belongs in the forefront of innovative avant-garde writing, regardless of ethnic background." ³Yet Baraka is not only a major author, but he is also an exceedingly controversial one. He is one of those mavericks, who, like Allen Ginsberg and Norman Mailer, have produced large bodies of work that are extremely critical of American Civilization. . . in fact, Baraka may be the most difficult American author to evaluate dispassionately since the modernist poet Ezra Pound, another writer whose work still evokes volatile critical response." Baraka's career has been divided, by his editor William J. Harris, into four periods, and that organization has guided this exhibition. During his
