Podcast appearances and mentions of sean singer

Today's poem is Burnt Plastic by Sean Singer. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, guest host Jason Schneiderman writes… “Today's poem is by Sean Singer, who, like me, is a teacher, but at a certain point he became a cab driver to support himself. In his poems about driving a cab, he experiences not a lilting relational arc of guiding students through a semester, but a staccato chord of intense contact, a brief and unguarded glimpse into a life, one in which he is equal parts service provider and witness.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.

Adam al-Sirgany interviews Yale Younger Poets winner Sean Singer about the development his prose-poem “Dirt,” which first in appeared in American Poetry Review and will be part of his forthcoming collection Today in the Taxi (Tupelo Press, 2022). Interview conducted 10/20/20. The Interview Series is a production of the Iowa-based arts and education nonprofit 1-Week Critique (1WC), which provides pedagogical resources and editorial support to students and teachers of the literary arts. You can learn more about our programs, support our work, and view Sean's poems, first and final, visiting https://www.1weekcritique.com. For more information on Sean's work, his books, and his editorial services, check out his website here: https://www.seansingerpoetry.com NB: Across the Interview Series, we occasionally discuss difficult issues of many kinds. While we believe that literature is one of the appropriate venues in which to speak to material that can be disturbing, we recognize not all individuals are best served by engaging all matters directly. We hope you'll view as it's right for you. All rights to the work remain with the author.

The first poem in Sean Singers' new collection of poetry, Today in the Taxi, published by Tupelo Press, begins with, “Today in the taxi, I brought a man from midtown to someplace in Astoria near the airport.” From that ordinary beginning, the poems explore the many features of New York City--its people, its streets, its highways, and its neighborhoods--all delivered through the impressions of an Uber driver. Like Walt Whitman, whose poem “Crossing Brooklyn Ferry” turned a short boat ride into a meditation on life, death and eternity, Sean's poetry starts in everyday experiences and grasps large realms of significance. Sean, now a former Uber driver, holds an MFA from Washington University in Saint Louis and a Ph.D. in American Studies from Rutgers University-Newark. He is the author of two other books of poetry: Discography, which won the Yale Series of Younger Poets Prize and the Norma Faber First Book Award from the Poetry Society of America, and Honey and Smoke---which the Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Yusef Komunyakaa said was “made of life's raw lyrical energy, where jazz becomes a spiritual compass.” Sean now works helping people write poetry and academic prose at seansingerpoetry.com. Robert W. Snyder is Manhattan Borough Historian and professor emeritus of American Studies and Journalism at Rutgers University, where he served on Sean's dissertation committee. He is the author of Crossing Broadway: Washington Heights and the Promise of New York (Cornell, paperback, 2019) and co-author of All the Nations Under Heaven: Immigrants, Migrants and the Making of New York (Columbia, 2019).
