Poetry Editor: Adam Plunkett

Design Observer has a long commitment to publishing poetry — both because we can and because we hope poetry will continue to be a part of our larger cultural project, another form of observation and reflection on how we work and live and love. Hopefully poems can also reflect on design, writ large, as a way of making, thinking and being. Over the past few years we've published occasional poems by John Barr, Stephen Vincent Benét, Allan Chochinov, Billy Collins, Robert Frost, Rachel Hadas, Donald Hall, J.D. McClatchy, James Merrill, W.S. Merwin, Paul Muldoon, Diana O'Hehir, Sharon Olds, Robert Pinsky, Chase Twichel, Christian Wiman, among many others. A complete listing of poems published on Design Observer can be found here.

We are pleased to announce that Adam Plunkett, who has previously written for The New Republic, n+1, Bookforum, The Los Angeles Review of Books, and other publications, is joining Design Observer for the next year as our Poetry Editor. We expect to publish more poetry in the coming months, and welcome the contributions of this young critic to our site.
