In 1981, the press published its first full-length volume of poems "Counting the Grasses" by Michael Mott, and today publishes the winners of its two book award contests as well as manuscripts chosen by its board.[1][2] Rick Campbell, author of four poetry collections, is Director of Anhinga Press.[3][4]
Notable authors published by Anhinga Press include Frank X. Gaspar, Janet Holmes, David Kirby (poet), Judith Kitchen, Chad Sweeney, Naomi Shihab Nye, Ruth L. Schwartz, Robert Dana, Erika Meitner, Silvia Curbelo and Diane Wakoski.[5] Anhinga Press' titles have been reviewed in venues including Mid-American Review,[6]Poetry Flash,[7]Rattle,[8]Cold Front Magazine,[9] and Story South,[10] and featured on Poetry Daily,[11]Verse Daily,[12] and the National Book Critic's Circle blog, Critical Mass,[13] and reprinted in anthologies including The Best American Poetry.[14]
