Since its founding in 1969 by William Packard, The New York Quarterly has been devoted to excellence in the publication of a unique and fervent cross-section of contemporary American poetry regardless of school of thought, style, or genre. Our only concern is to focus on the craft that underlies effective poetry writing. The New York Quarterly features works by both known and emerging poets. The NYQ Craft Interviews present the views of some of our most outstanding poets on the general subjects of style, prosody and technique. The issues are rounded out with an essay or two on the subject of contemporary American poetry that is both accessible and meaningful to readers, poets, students, and teachers of poetry alike. NYQ 59 is the memorial issue for William Packard. It features a re-print of the NYQ 40 craft interview with William Packard; a previously unpublished interview with William Packard by Wendy Lee Matthes; the famous essay, "A Writer Writes," by William Packard; and poetry by William Packard, Charles Bukowski, Antler, Lyn Lifshin, Andrew Glaze, Stephen Herz, Jerry Judge, Susan Thomas, Chris Tusa, Douglas Treem, Taylor Graham, Urayo?n Noel, Lewis Turco, William E.
