December 24: Happy Birthday Dana Gioia
Dana Gioia, distinguished poet, critic, cultural observer, and Catholic, was born Christmas Eve in 1950. In the midst of an extraordinary career in which he has achieved widespread recognition and active sales of his poetry collections, a rare achievement for living poets, he continues to work towards another kind of success—seeking to bring not only poetry (which is much neglected these days) but also the work of fine Catholic writers back into the mainstream culture.
