Robin Becker,
associate professor of English and women's studies, is the author of a book
of poems.
The Horse Fair, published by the University
of Pittsburgh Press, 2000.
This collection of poems, supported by grants
from the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts and the National Endowment for the
Arts, speaks to feelings of being an outsider and a survivor, giving attention
to personal and historical tragedies.
It is also a soulful account of Becker's
own experiences. Becker has authored four other collections of poetry.
