MEET OUR SPEAKER:
Robert Lynn took up writing poetry when, as a new president of Louisiana College, he discerned that students of that generation disliked speeches but loved verse. Since then, he has since written four hundred poems, won numerous awards, and written or edited ten books. His most recent book is Midnight Verse. He edited for three years The Reach of Song, poetry anthology of the Georgia Poetry Society. Lynn lead the Johns Creek Poetry Group in Atlanta and reads his poetry an average of twenty times a year to audiences across the Southeastern United States.
