This stamp, 21st in the Literary Arts series, recognizes the achievements
of Robert Penn Warren, a three-time recipient of the Pulitzer Prize, the only
writer to win the prize in poetry "Promises: Poems, 1954-1956" in 1958, and
"Now and Then: Poems, 1976-1978 " in 1979 as well as fiction "All the King's
Men," 1947.
Outside the classroom, Warren wrote as often as possible." Fusing fact with fiction,
the poet wove his memories -- of people and places , images and incidents --
and his personal and political concerns into meditations on the meaning and
significance of life.
Though readers saw similarities between Huey "Kingfish" Long, a Louisiana
politician felled by an assassin's bullet, and the fictional Stark, Warren
maintained that Stark was not meant to be Long. In addition, beautifully custom-framed prints of
original stamp art are available at http://www. They
