Subject: R.I.P. John Updike
To one and all: John Updike died the other day of lung cancer at age 76. Although he’s primarily remembered as a prolific novelist and essayist, he was also one of the 20th Century’s leading poets. Here’s the drawing of Updike that I did just last year for the International Society of Poets in Owings Mills. You can also view it on their website (the world’s most popular poetry website) at www.poetry.com . Sincerely, Jerry Breen http://www.newbreen.com
