Andrew Glaze
Encyclopedia
Andrew Glaze is an American
poet
, playwright
, and novelist. About him, Robert Frost
wrote, “I have high hopes for Mr. Glaze”. Although much of Glaze's poetry reflects his coming of age in the South, and eventual return there, he also lived in New York City
for 31 years. The poetry he wrote during this time captured a verbal photograph of life in Manhattan
, and while living there he became part of a circle of poets that included Oscar Williams
, Norman Rosten
, John Ciardi
, and William Packard
.
, April 21, 1920, to Mildred Ezell Glaze, and Dr. Andrew Louis Glaze M.D., a Dermatologist. He grew up in Birmingham
, Alabama
with a younger sister and brother. He has been called both Andrew L. Glaze III, and Junior. His grandfather, Andrew L. Glaze, was a Confederate doctor during the Civil War
, but the middle name had the alternate spelling of “Lewis”.
. In a 1985 interview with writer Steven Ford Brown
, Glaze revealed that, while a student there, he came to know Robert Frost
. This was primarily because Glaze was a resident of Leverett House
and his poetry teacher, Theodore Morrison, kept seating him beside Frost at the monthly banquets held in Leverett House Dining Hall.
to serve during World War II
. He sailed to Europe
on the RMS Queen Mary
, which had been converted into a troop transport ship that could carry 15,000 men. “The American poet Andrew Glaze, then an Air Force lieutenant
, stood on the foredeck and looked down on 'a quarter of a mile of human circles shooting craps
'." When the war was over, while waiting his turn to be shipped back home, he attended the University of Grenoble
.
, he took a creative writing course at Stanford University
, and accepted a summer Fellowship
invitation to the Bread Loaf Writers' Conference
. Attendees that year included Eugene Burdick
, and William Styron
. Glaze's former teacher, Theodore Morrison, was now the Director of the conference, and Robert Frost
a Faculty
member. Several years after the conference, when Frost came through Birmingham, Alabama
, on a poetry reading tour, he asked his host to call and invite Glaze to join them on an outing. Glaze eventually wrote a poem about the excursion and titled it Mr. Frost. Never officially published in a book, it is currently archived in the Houghton Library at Harvard. Meanwhile, at Dartmouth College
, in the Robert Frost Collection of the Rauner Special Collections Library, is a hand written note from Frost about Glaze's poetry. Donated by Theodore Morrison's wife Kathleen in 1978, it begins with, "I should be sorry if a book of verse as genuine and readable as this couldn't find a publisher," and is signed, "Robert Frost, April 14, 1956".
, from 1949–1956, Glaze worked as a reporter for the Birmingham Post-Herald
, initially as a courthouse reporter. The experience eventually resulted in the title poem of his book I Am The Jefferson County Courthouse. In 1949 he married Dorothy Elliott, an actress from Birmingham, and daughter of William Young Elliott, Poet Laureate
of Alabama from 1975–1982.
magazine published seven of his poems. In 1951, Karl Shapiro
, the editor of Poetry at the time, awarded him the magazine's Eunice Tietjens
Memorial Prize At the same time, The New Yorker
accepted one poem in 1950, and a second in 1955. He also had a short fiction piece appear in the 1953 4th Edition of New World Writing
, and a poem in the 9th Edition in 1956.
Between 1950–1956, Glaze and his wife had a daughter, and renovated their house in Birmingham. One fellow hired to help paint the house was a local African-American named Earl. Glaze titled a poem after him, in which he described the renovation efforts, and included it in his first major book Damned Ugly Children. Glaze also had a close friend, William Gaither, who voluntarily helped Glaze work on the house. Years later, when he learned that Gaither had died, Glaze wrote a poem titled Bill Where Are You?, expressing his gratitude in the poem, along with a dedication. The poem appeared in his 1978 book The Trash Dragon of Shensi. Both of these poems provide a glimpse into what is one of Glaze's most enduring poetry traits, which is to write poems which reflect on people and events in his life.
In 1957, Glaze moved with wife and daughter to New York City
, where he worked on writing plays, poetry and fiction. They lived in Greenwich Village
and Glaze wrote a poem titled As I walk mornings down Bleecker Street
(later retitled, "Alleluia"), and another titled Village Parade, which appeared in his first book. A son was born, but by 1961 the couple had divorced. The move to Manhattan
, and subsequent divorce were later incorporated into Glaze's poem and book titled A City. Glaze's ex-wife later became Dorothy Elliott Shari, when she married actor William Shari, and joined The Living Theatre
, Julian Beck
, and Judith Malina
, for a six year tour of Europe
and abroad.
The move to New York was for career reasons, but was hastened by a fear of reprisal for articles that Glaze had written as a reporter for the Birmingham Post Herald. This was the dawn of the Civil rights movement
, when Racial segregation
and Jim Crow laws
were an every day part of life in Birmingham, and Glaze had testified against a deputy sheriff in the defence of two black men, while he also wrote about police brutality against demonstrators.
cast of Camelot
. She later danced in the original cast of Michael Bennett
's Broadway show Ballroom
. In Andrew Glaze's Greatest Hits 1964-2004, Glaze notes that his poem Night Walk to a Country Theater (originally in the The New Yorker
) was written on a visit to Connecticut
where his wife was performing. The couple settled into an apartment on the West side of Manhattan
, and for many years Glaze bicycled across town to the British Tourist Authority office on 5th Avenue and 54th Street, where he worked as a Press Officer, writing travel stories. His morning bicycle journey to work, heading East along 54th Street, inspired the poem Fantasy Street which was published in The New Yorker
. The evening trip home, going West on 53rd Street, resulted in the matching poem "Reality Street", which appeared in the magazine The Atlantic. Glaze referred to them as “Two Odes, after the fashion of Milton's L'Allego and Il Penseroso”.
In 1963, for exercise, and to learn more about his wife's interests, at the age of 43, Glaze began taking ballet
lessons. In August 1980, Dance Magazine
published a poem of his titled "Nijinsky
", in which Glaze imagined the ghost of the famous dancer observing him with a critical eye. Later, Robert Wilkinson interviewed him on the topic and titled it The Poet as Dancer.
by Richard Eberhart
, “...Glaze's poems are refreshing in the intellectual health they show,… He possesses a true richness of psychic perception”. That same year the American Library Association
proclaimed the book, “One of the most notable books of 1966”. On the wave of this acclaim, Glaze was invited to participate in the 1967 Morris Gray Lecture Series at Harvard, and to sign their historic Morris Gray Lecture Signature Book. A few months later, in June 1968, Robert Mazzocco reviewed the book, together with one by poet Robert Bly
, in The New York Review of Books
. The header for the dual review was "Jeremiads at Half-Mast". The following summer of 1969, Glaze found himself back at the Bread Loaf Writers' Conference
, this time as a guest Faculty member, along with Maxine Kumin
. In the meantime, poet John Ciardi
had replaced Theodore Morrison as the Conference Director. David Rabe and William Doreski attended as student scholars that year. William Doreski later wrote that he first met Andrew Glaze at the Bread Loaf Writer's Conference that August, and added "He was, as I recall, doing mock obeisance before John Ciardi's new white Cadillac”.
, a poet and gourmet cookbook writer, was among those, and in 1965, when her Complete Book of Mexican Cooking, was first published, it revealed a recipe
on page 286 with the words, “This recipe … was given to me by my friend Adriana Keathley Glaze, the dancer and actress”. Glaze then wrote a poem titled What's That You Say, Cesar? and dedicated it to her Mexican husband Cesar Ortiz-Tinoco. In the same time period, friends in the ballet world appeared in a line of Glaze's poem Bill, where are you? Glaze wrote, “We made a practice barre for Richard and Gage”. The reference was to Gage Bush, a dancer from Birmingham, married to Richard Englund, who danced in Camelot
together with Glaze's 2nd wife. The Englunds became members of American Ballet Theatre
.
dancer Helen McGehee, led Glaze to collaborate with her husband, Columbian artist, Rafael Alfonso Umaña
Mendez. The result was an oversized folio of Glaze's poems, and lithographs by Umaña, titled simultaneously Lines or Poems, which was published by Editions Heraclita.
In the late 1960s, Glaze was contacted by Elizabeth (Betty) Whittington, daughter of Dorsey Whittington, conductor of the original Alabama Symphony Orchestra
. Elizabeth was a pianist, married to composer Alan Hovhaness
, and owner of a record company called Poseidon Society. In the 1970s, she decided to record an LP of Andrew Glaze reading his poems on Side A, while side B had poems written and read by poet Galway Kinnell
. Elizabeth's husband, Alan Hovhaness
, also approached Glaze, with a musical score that he asked Glaze to write lyrics and a libretto script for. In 1969, the final piece, a spoof musical, was written, scored, and titled The Most Engaged Girl, but never produced Glaze refers to Hovhaness in a paragraph of his poem Reality Street.
. It was part of a triple bill with The Floor by May Swenson
, and 23 Pat O'Brian Movies by Bruce Jay Friedman
.
, César Vallejo
, Frederico Garcia Lorca, and Octavio Paz
. His translation of Pablo Neruda's poem "I want to Turn to the South" appeared in The Atlantic in 1971. Other translations appeared in his booklet A Masque of Surgery, which was published in England, and two that he'd done by Osip Mandelstam
, titled Leningrad and Twilight of Freedom, were published in Poetry NOW # 4, in 1974.
In 1974, with the assistance of producer Joseph Papp
, Glaze had a play, Kleinhoff Demonstrates tonight, produced at the Cricket Theatre in Minneapolis. Seven theatre groups performed the play between 1971—1988, and Papp's own organization, The Public Theatre/New York Shakespeare Festival, did a production with the actor/singer known as "Meatloaf
" in a leading role. A second play, The Man-Tree, had a staged reading in 1974 by Joseph Papp
's The Public Theatre. Two years later, The American Repertory Company of London, performed Glaze's play The Man-Tree in London.
. In 1976 she commissioned composer Ned Rorem
to set it to music as a lied song for soprano
. Rorem dedicated the piece to her by having the words “For Alice” printed above the title on the official sheet music. The song has since been recorded by various singers. Glaze later wrote a poem titled Lights, dedicated it to Esty, and placed it as the very first poem in his 1978 book The Trash Dragon of Shensi. When the book came out, Glaze received a second glowing review in The New York Times
, this time by writer Peter Schjeldahl
who wrote, "He is a poet I would just like to quote and quote, there are so many fine, affecting and amusing passages".
1983 brought two new plays. Love is Nothing to Laugh At, and Uneasy Lies which was reviewed in the New York Post
by William Raidy.
By the mid-80s a book had been published and titled "Earth That Sings: on the poetry of Andrew Glaze". The volume contained selected poems from each of Glaze's prior books up to that point, and was edited by William Doreski. It contained interviews and articles about Glaze written by Steven Ford Brown, William Doreski, Theodore Haddin, Robert Wilkinson, and Carole Kiler, as well as an article titled "Pagan-Protestant: notes on growing up in Alabama" by Glaze himself.
. The first to be published, in 1991, was Reality Street. In 1997, the second, a collection of Glaze's poems titled Carnal Blessings was a finalist for the T.S. Eliot poetry prize. A third book of poems went to print in 1998 with the title, Someone Will Go On Owing, selected poems, 1966-1992, and won the SIBA Award. The book contained two poems that Maxine Kumin admitted were two of her favorites, Trash Dragon of Shensi and Fantasy Street.
In 2002, the fourth book, Remembering Thunder was released, after which Glaze and his wife moved to his hometown of Birmingham, Alabama
. This time Maxine Kumin commented, “His original and unsettling voice makes these poems a real triumph”. Since moving back to Alabama, Glaze has continued to write, and in 2004 his book Andrew Glaze: Greatest Hits 1964–2004 was published.
was directly responsible for the publication of Glaze's first book. He brought a manuscript
of Glaze's poems to his own publishers, Simon & Schuster
, and then suddenly died. The publishers asked a second advisor, writer and poet Norman Rosten
, for advice, and Rosten gave his approval for the book Rosten became a friend, and later described Glaze as, “A serious, playful, irreverent poet, capable of setting off fireworks in the museum”. In 1981, Glaze dedicated his book I am the Jefferson County Courthouse to Norman Rosten, and another friend. Later, Glaze dedicated his 2002 book Remembering Thunder to his poetry publisher friends, Martin Mitchell and William Packard

An on-line memorial website for the late Poet James Humphrey mentions Glaze as a friend, and includes a quote by Andrew Glaze that is identified as one of his inspirations. “If you have the appetite for life, stay hungry.”
