Poems Out Loud

If you're a fan of early poets like Anne Bradstreet (often considered America's first), check out this virtual poetry reading by former U.S. Poet Laureate Robert Pinsky. The site was inspired by Pinsky's latest anthology, which explores the practice of listening to poems being read out loud, and will be updated throughout Poetry Month.

Pinsky is the author of several poetry collections and is poetry editor of Slate magazine.
