Dr. John Lowney Publishes Two Essays in Major Book Collections

Dr. John Lowney, Professor of English, had two major essays published this year:

One is “‘Frank-ly Speaking’: Frank Marshall Davis, the African American Left, and Barack Obama’s Dreams from My Father” which appeared in Barack Obama’s Literary Legacy: Readings of Dreams From My Father, edited by  Richard Purcell and Henry Veggian for Palgrave Macmillan.

The other, “William Carlos Williams: The New Poetries and Legacy,” is the concluding chapter of the recent Cambridge Companion to William Carlos Williams, edited by Christopher MacGowan for Cambridge University Press.

Congratulations, Dr. Lowney!
