David Kirby's collection The House on Boulevard St.: New and Selected Poems was a finalist for the National Book Award in 2007. Kirby is the author of Little Richard: The Birth of Rock ‘n’ Roll, which the Times Literary Supplement of London called "a hymn of praise to the emancipatory power of nonsense." His latest poetry collection is More Than This, and he’s got two new books coming out this year: a new collection called Help Me, Information and a textbook, The Knowledge: Where Poems Come From and How to Write Them. He teaches English at Florida State University.
