Billy Collins April 4, 2008

Former U.S. Poet Laureate (2001-2003) Billy Collins will read his poems, answer questions and autograph books. No poet since Robert Frost has managed to combine critical acclaim with such broad popular appeal. His last three collections of poems have broken sales records for poetry. His readings are usually standing room only, and his audience -- enhanced tremendously by his appearance on National Public Radio -- includes people of all backgrounds and age groups.
