Gregory Orr (poet)
Gregory Orr (born 1947 in Albany, New York, United States) is an American poet. He received a B.A. degree from Antioch College and an M.F.A. from Columbia University. He is a professor of English at the University of Virginia where he founded the MFA Program in Writing in 1975, and served from 1978 to 2003 as Poetry Editor of the ''Virginia Quarterly Review''. He is also a columnist and editor of the magazine, ''Sacred Bearings: A Journal for Survivors''. He lives with his wife, the painter Trisha Orr, and their two daughters in Charlottesville, Virginia.
Featured on National Public Radio’s ''This I Believe'', Orr has been the recipient of fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts, and of an Award in Literature from the American Academy of Arts and Letters.〔()〕
Orr is the author of eleven collections of poetry, including ''City of Salt (1995)'' which was a finalist for the LA Times Poetry Prize. He is also the author of a memoir, ''The Blessing (2002)'', which was chosen by ''Publishers Weekly'' as one of the fifty best non-fiction books of the year, and three books of essays.
In reviewing ''Concerning the Book That Is the Body of the Beloved'' (Copper Canyon Press, 2005), Ted Genoways writes in the ''Virginia Quarterly Review'': “Sure, the trappings of modern life appear at the edges of these poems, but their focus is so unwaveringly aimed toward the transcendent—not God, but the beloved—that we seem to slip into a less cluttered time. It’s an experience usually reserved for reading the ancients, and clearly that was partly Orr’s inspiration.” In reviewing ''How Beautiful the Beloved'' (Copper Canyon Press, 2009) in ''Bookslut'', Sean Patrick Hill writes that Orr’s “poems themselves are as Frost said they must be: momentary stays against confusion.”
Gregory Orr wrote an opinion piece in the Sunday Magazine of the New York Times on August 29, 2014 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/31/opinion/sunday/reflections-on-a-shooting-range-death-from-one-who-knows.html )〕 about accidentally killing his brother in a hunting accident in response to the fatal shooting with an Uzi machine gun of a gun instructor by a 9 year old in Arizona.
