on the occasion of his receiving the American Academy of Arts and Letters Arthur Rense Prize given every three years to a "poet of consistent excellence over a long career." David edited the superb 2009 volume in the BAP series. And here is a photograph of Mark Doty -- also an American Academy honoree in 2011 -- reading at the launch event for BAP 2009 in September of that year.
