The Anne Sutton Newman Weeks Poetry Series is excited to present Shara McCallum.

Links to virtual reading will be added soon.

Originally from Jamaica, Shara McCallum is the author of six books of poetry published in the US and UK, including No Ruined Stone (forthcoming in 2021) and Madwoman (winner of the 2018 OCM Bocas Prize for Caribbean Poetry and the 2018 Motton Book Prize from the New England Poetry Club). Her work has been translated into Spanish, French, Italian, Romanian, Dutch, and Turkish. She is the recipient of a Witter Bynner Fellowship from the US Library of Congress and a Poetry Fellowship from the National Endowment for the Arts, among other awards. McCallum is a Liberal Arts Professor of English at Penn State University and on the faculty of the Pacific University Low-Residency MFA Program.
