Remembering Joel Oppenheimer

Poetry. Lyman Gilmore's biography of Joel Oppenheimer, Don't Touch the Poet, says Robert Bertholf, "made me realize again how much I loved Joel, and how much fun I had being around him." REMEMBERING JOEL OPPENHEIMER is in turn the record of a deep personal friendship as well as a study of the work of one of the major Black Mountain poets. Robert J Bertholf edited Oppenheimer's Collected Later Poems. He is also the editor of, among others, Selected Poems of Robert Duncan, From This Condensery (selected poems of Lorine Neidecker), A Great Admiration H.D./Robert Duncan Correspondence 1950-1961, and (with David Landrey), a volume of works by Oppenheimer, Drawing from Life.. Formerly curator for the Poetry/Rare Books Collection at the State University of New York at Buffalo, Bertholf is currently the Charles D Abbott Scholar-In-Residence at that university.Bertholf, Robert J. is the author of 'Remembering Joel Oppenheimer ', published 2005 under ISBN 9781584980445 and ISBN 1584980443.
