Westminster Professor to Read from His New Book
Posted on Friday, January 27, 2006
Dr. David Swerdlow, professor of English at Westminster College, will present "The Nests and Other Poems, A Reading" at Faculty Forum Wednesday, Feb. 8, at 11:45 a.m. in the Sebastian Mueller Theater located in the McKelvey Campus Center.
"I will be reading poems from my new book manuscript, The Nests," Swerdlow said. "This manuscript, which I completed during my fall sabbatical, is a contemporary sonnet sequence inspired by love and grief."
Swerdlow, who has been with Westminster College since 1990, earned his undergraduate degree from the University of Maryland and his master's and Ph.D. from Ohio University.
Faculty Forum, established in 1990, serves as a venue for the exchange of ideas and information among Westminster College faculty.
