John Ciardi
John Anthony Ciardi is an American poet, translator and scholar. Although primarily known as a poet, he also translated Dante's Divine Comedy, wrote several volumes of children's poetry, continued its etymology, contributed to the Seventh Journal as a longtime home columnist and poetry editor, and directing the Bread Loaf Writers Conference in Vermont. In 1959, Ciardi published a book on how to read, write, and teach poetry, How Does a Poem Mean ?, which turned out to be one of the most widely used books of its kind. At the height of her popularity in the early 1960s, Ciardi also had an internet TV show on CBS, Accent. Ciardi's impact on poetry is perhaps best measured through the young poets, with whom he influenced as a professor and editor of the Seventh Journal.
