Carol Ann Davis, professor of English, was recently featured in stories written by the City Paper and the Post & Courier exemplifying her teaching methods and release of her new book.

Her second book of poetry, Atlas Hour, focuses on her children and artwork.  This book is written entirely in poem-map style, in which spacing is used rather than punctuation.

This Florida native is the head of the creative writing concentration at the College, where she strives to broaden her student’s horizons, and teach them that their expectations are limitless.

Davis studied poetry at Vassar College and the University of Massachusetts-Amherst and has been writing for the last 20 years.
