Professor emeritus lends his insight to PBS
For 40 years, David Baker taught the poems of Wallace Stevens to Denison students. PBS recently tapped the now-retired poetry professor to share his knowledge of and appreciation for Stevens’ work with a much wider audience, on an episode of “Poetry in America.” Read more about Baker’s contributions to poetic discourse, and support the funds established in his honor to help student writers.
