Charles Harper Webb literally stands up when he performs his poems, as do most poets, but Webb uses “stand up” as a term for his poetry aesthetic. “It’s poetry that combines high literary quality with high entertainment,” he says. Put another way, Webb adds, “The cardinal sin of poetry, and all art, is to bore.” He has won the Morse Prize, the Kate Tufts Discovery Award, the Felix Pollock Prize, and more. His poems have appeared in American Poetry Review, Paris Review, Yale Review, Harvard Review, Poetry, Best American Poetry and New Letters. Webb has published 11 books of poetry, including Shadow Ball: New and Selected Poems (2009) and his most recent, Brain Camp (2015). Red Hen Press recently released his book of essays, A Million MFAs Are Not Enough. A former professional rock musician and psychotherapist, Webb has edited Stand Up Poetry: An Extended Anthology (2002) and received a Whiting Award, a Guggenheim Fellowship and a distinguished faculty teaching award from California State University-Long Beach where he teaches in the M.F.A. program in creative writing. Webb will perform his poems at 7 p.m., Wednesday, April 5, in Arrupe Hall Auditorium. A book signing and reception follow the reading. Admission at the door is $3. Free parking is available in lots accessed through the University’s entrance at 54th Street and Troost Avenue and the garage at 52nd Street and Troost Avenue.
