Dr. Marilyn Kallet, director of UT&#8217;s Creative Writing Program, and Arthur Smith, professor of English, are established poets and major American authors.<\/p>\n<p>The reading is historic in that both Smith and Kallet have new books out at the same time and will be doing a reading together. In their most recent works, they incorporate a variety of poems about love, life and loss through their crisp, clean writing styles and expressive personalities.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/live-utk-volumes.pantheonsite.io\/files\/2013\/04\/ArtSmith.jpg\" alt=\"ArtSmith\" width=\"180\" height=\"135\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-6142\" \/>Kallet and Smith will read from their recently published books: <em>The Love That Moves Me<\/em> and <em>The Fortunate Era<\/em>, respectively.   <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is a rare and special treat,&#8221; Chris Hebert, the Jack E. Reese Writer in Residence at the UT Libraries said. &#8220;Any new book is a memorable occasion, but to have two new books simultaneously &#8212; one from each of the beloved poets on our faculty &#8212; is a cause for celebration!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kallet and Smith have won prestigious awards for their poetry. Smith has received two Pushcart Prizes and a National Endowment for the Arts Creative Writing Fellowship, while Kallet has received the Tennessee Arts Commission Literary Fellowship in Poetry, written 16 books and performed internationally.<br \/>\n__<\/p>\n<p class=\"smaller\"><a href=\"http:\/\/old.lib.utk.edu\/writersinthelibrary\/\">Writers in the Library<\/a> is sponsored by the University of Tennessee Libraries and the UT Creative Writing Program in association with the John C.
