Ron Padgett (born June 17, 1942, Tulsa, Oklahoma) is an American poet, essayist, fiction writer, translator, and a member of the New York School. ''Bean Spasms'', Padget's first collection of poems, was published in 1967 and written with Ted Berrigan.〔("Ron Padgett" ), Poets.org〕 He won a 2009 Shelley Memorial Award.〔("About the Author: Ron Padgett," ) Coffee House Press. Accessed May 31, 2014.〕 == Work == As a 17-year-old high school student, Padgett co-founded the avant-garde literary journal ''The White Dove Review''. Collaborating with fellow Central High students Dick Gallup and Joe Brainard, along with University of Tulsa (TU) student-poet Ted Berrigan, Padgett audaciously solicited work for the ''White Dove'' from Black Mountain and Beat Movement writers such as Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac, LeRoi Jones, e.e. cummings, and Malcolm Cowley. To Padgett's surprise, most of the writers submitted work to the journal. Notably, ''The White Dove Review'' printed "The Thrashing Doves" by Jack Kerouac, "My Sad Self (for Frank O'Hara)" by Allen Ginsberg, "Crap and Cauliflower" by Carl Larsen, and "Redhead" by Paul Blackburn, among many others. After five issues, Padgett and co. retired the ''White Dove'' and left Tulsa for New York, where they integrated into the New York School.〔Kline, Joshua.
