I hate to do this to a poet--Lord knows American poets have a hard enough job already, teaching composition and all that. Anyway, I cannot find any reliable sources reporting on this poet or her work. I found that she had a poem published in The Nation, but that's it. Please prove me wrong by finding reliable sources--newspaper articles, reviews of her work, etc. Drmies (talk) 03:54, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete. If a cultural organisation thinks she's worthy of support she deserves congratulations but it doesn't make her notable. NYFA gives out over 100 such awards each year.Asnac (talk) 12:52, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
