Jericho Brown is an American poet, professor, and editor renowned for his lyrical and emotionally vulnerable poetry. He won the 2020 Pulitzer Prize for Poetry for his collection ‘The Tradition” (2019), which also earned the Paterson Poetry Prize and was a finalist for the National Book Award. Brown’s work explores themes of identity, race, sexuality, family, and violence.
He invented the "duplex," a poetic form combining elements of the sonnet, ghazal, and blues, featured in “The Tradition”. His earlier books, “Please" (2008) and “The New Testament” (2014), won the American Book Award and Anisfield-Wolf Book Award, respectively. Brown has received fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation, NEA, and MacArthur Foundation.
