Randall Mann

The Kenyon Review and Zoo Press are pleased to announce that Randall Mann has been awarded the 2003 Kenyon Review Prize in Poetry. The contest is open to all poets who have not yet published a full-length collection of verse. Manuscripts must be of original poetry, and in English.

The Kenyon Review's Poetry Editor David Baker, who awards the prize annually, selected Mann's Complaint in the Garden as the 2003 winner. As part of the award, Complaint will be published by Zoo Press in 2004, and Mann will receive $3,500 as an advance against royalties. In addition, selections from the book will appear in the Spring 2004 issue of KR.

Mann was born in Provo, Utah, and grew up in Kentucky and Florida. He attended the University of Florida. Mann lives in San Francisco, where he works as an administrative analyst at the University of California. His poems and reviews have appeared in The New Republic, The Paris Review, Poetry, Pleiades, Salmagundi, and Verse.
