Biography

“O’Hara was a poet of lightness, who generally eschewed the political role, even of his acquaintances, the Beats, and sought to apply music theory, surrealist models, and the techniques of Abstract Expressionist painters in his work.”
-Professor Trevor Code, WPI English Department


“Reading O’Hara for the first time is like discovering for the first time that corn pops.”
-Professor Wayne-Daniel Berard of the Worcester County Poetry Association.
