Biography
Paul Laurence Dunbar (1872—1906) was born to two former slaves. While working as an elevator operator, he published his first poetry collection. His second collection in 1895 thrust him into the national spotlight and garnered praise from the white and black elite. He ultimately produced twelve books of poetry, several stories and plays, and five novels.
Herbert Woodward Martin is a professor at the University of Dayton. He is an active fan and promoter of Dunbar's work.
