Self-taught, Lucille Clifton uses plain language to explore life's complexities and to affirm the spirit's endurance. Recently named a Chancellor of the Academy of American Poets, she has served on faculties of universities across the country and is currently Distinguished Professor of Humanities at St. Mary's College of Maryland. "adam thinking" she stolen from my bone is it any wonder i hunger to tunnel back inside desperate to reconnect the rib and clay and to be whole again some need is in me struggling to roar through my mouth into a name this creation is so fierce i would rather have been born "eve thinking" it is wild country here brothers and sisters coupling claw and wing groping one another i wait while the clay two-foot rumbles in his chest searching for language to call me but he is slow tonight as he sleeps i will whisper into his mouth our names won't you celebrate with me what i have shaped into a kind of life? i had no model.

73. LUCILLE CLIFTON 1 I have been many times blessed in having met a number of such women. The first was lucille clifton. SOME BRIEF BIOGRAPHIES OF lucille clifton. http://www.geocities.com/Wellesley/9178/clifton1.html

Some of us are very, very fortunate: we are priviliged to at least once in our lifetime meet a woman who is so powerful, so full of love and giving, that she changes the course of our lives, and always for the better. I have been many times blessed in having met a number of such women. The first was Lucille Clifton. She was my Senior Thesis Advisor during the short time she was at the University of California - Santa Cruz and she gave me the gift of trusting my woman's voice as a writer. She taught me that writer's are "Ordinary Women" indeed, which meant I could join that elite if I so chose, and that as "Ordinary Women" we have powerful things to say about the world we live in. She taught me writers are not Goddesses that look down upon mere mortals such as myself, yet rather are warm, loving, caring women willing and eager to share their knowledge of the craft of writing. At least Lucille Clifton is. There is nothing, really, that I can say about Lucille Clifton that her poetry cannot say better. I am including on the following pages the poems from good woman: poems and a memoir 1969-1980 which affected me most profoundly, with brief comments regarding my response to them. Understand, please, these are only my interpretations of her poems; it may not be at all what she intended or what you perceive of them, but then, that is one of the magic wonders of poetry: we see each poem in our individual, unique way. I simply hope you are struck with the beauty and power of Lucille Clifton's poems as I have been.

Marti Hobbes News Assistant T (413) 585-2190 F (413) 585-2174 mhobbes@smith.edu Office of College Relations Smith College Garrison Hall Northampton, Massachusetts 01063 www.smith.edu/newsoffice August 28, 2002 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Beloved Poet Lucille Clifton to Read at Smith College NORTHAMPTON, Mass.-Smith College will host poet Lucille Clifton at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 24, in Wright Hall Auditorium. The event, sponsored by the Poetry Center, is free and open to the public. Clifton is one of the most beloved and respected figures in American poetry today. A major voice since her publishing debut in 1969, she has continued to portray the experiences of being an African American, a woman and a human, with clarity and elegance. Her language, often described as "deceptively simple," strikes a nuanced balance between complexity of thought and economy of words. Born in Depew, N.Y., Clifton attended both Howard University (where she met future luminaries Toni Morrison and James Baldwin) and Fredonia State Teachers College (now SUNY-Fredonia). She is the author of a dozen books of poetry and prose and almost 20 children's books, including the Everett Anderson series. The New York Times named her first book of poems, "Good Times," one of the ten best books of 1969. Subsequent books include "An Ordinary Woman," "Good Woman," "Quilting" and, most recently, "Blessing the Boats: New and Selected Poems, 1988-2000," which won the National Book Award. Clifton is the only poet to have two books nominated for the Pulitzer at once ("Next" and "Good Woman: Poems and a Memoir, 1969-1980").
