Roland Flint

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Roland Henry Flint (February 27, 1934 - January 2, 2001) was an American poet and professor of English at Georgetown University.

Born in Park River, North Dakota, he attended the University of North Dakota before joining the United States Marine Corps. He served in post-war Korea and then returned to and graduated from the University of North Dakota. He earned an M.A. in English from Marquette University and a Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota, where he wrote his dissertation on the early work of Theodore Roethke and began to publish his poetry. At the University of Minnesota he began a long friendship with Garrison Keillor.

He was a professor of English at Georgetown University from 1968-1997, and received several university awards for his teaching. He was Poet Laureate of Maryland from 1995-2000, when he resigned due to poor health. His poetry is exceptionally accessible and direct in style and often very moving.

He died of pancreatic cancer in 2001 at the age of 66.
