Young People’s Poet Laureate
On June 1, 2015 I began a two-year term as
Young People’s Poet Laureate.
Wondering what that is? The Poetry Foundation’s website describes it this way: “the Young People’s Poet Laureate aims to raise awareness”. As Young People’s Poet Laureate, I served two years advising the Poetry Foundation and engaged in projects designed to instill a lifelong love of poetry in children.
