Author:  Beth Ann Fennelly's first book of poems, Open House, won the Great Lakes College Association New Writers Award and was a Book Sense Top-Ten Pick (to be reissued by W.W. Norton, 2009). Other books include Tender Hooks (Norton 2004) and Unmentionables (Norton 2008), which Booklist calls "insouciant, sexy, funny, and dead-on." Fennelly's poetry has appeared in more than 40 anthologies. She lives in Oxford, Miss., with novelist husband Tom Franklin, and their children. She teaches at the University of Mississippi. A book of essays, Great With Child: Letters To A Young Mother was published by Norton in 2006.

The Midwest Poets Series, sponsored by The Center for Arts & Letters and The College Of Arts and Sciences at Rockhurst University, has been designed to enhance the literary and intellectual lives of Rockhurst University, its neighbors in Kansas City and the surrounding region.
