Robert Penn Warren Circle annual meeting to open with film screening April 25

The annual meeting of the Robert Penn Warren Circle will begin April 25 at WKU with a screening of the documentary film Robert Penn Warren: A Vision.

This original KET production explores the life and career of Kentucky’s most acclaimed writer, the first Poet Laureate of the United States, and winner of Pulitzer Prizes in both fiction and poetry. It traces Warren's birth and upbringing in Guthrie, his years at Vanderbilt University, and his career as a poet, novelist, scholar and journalist.

The film screening will take place at 8 p.m. in Cherry Hall 125 and is free and open to the public.
