Hymns & Incantations: a poetry reading by Mark Doty  and Marie Howe

Marie Howe is the author  New and Selected  Poems, which has just won the 2025 Pulitzer Prize in Poetry.

( W.W. Norton 2024.) which includes poems from her four previous books. 

From 2012-2014, she served as the Poet Laureate of New York State. She is the poet in residence at The Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine, and a chancellor of the Academy of American Poets.

“Marie Howe's poetry is luminous, intense, and eloquent, rooted in an abundant inner life. Her long, deep-breathing lines address the mysteries of flesh and spirit, in terms accessible only to a woman who is very much of our time and yet still in touch with the sacred.”

—Stanley Kunitz

Mark Doty’s ten books of poetry include Fire To Fire: New & Selected Poems, which won the National Book Award in 2008. He has also published five books of nonfiction prose, most recently What is the Grass: Walt Whitman in My Life, which NPR called “a celebration of gay manhood, queerness, and the power and elasticity of poetry,"
