Edgar Bowers

Edgar Bowers (/ˈbaʊ.ərz/; March 2, 1924 – February 4, 2000) was an American poet who won the Bollingen Prize in Poetry in 1989 and two Guggenheim fellowships. In selecting Mr. Bowers, the judges cited his 1973 work, Living Together: New and Selected Poems, saying that it "cemented Mr. Bowers's reputation as a poet of enduring work." Harold Bloom declared Bowers one of the 20th century’s masters.
