Stanley Kunitz, a leading American poet, former poet laureate of the United States, and winner of a National Book Award and Pulitzer and Bollingen Prizes, died on Sunday (see obituary in The New York Times). Aside from his poetry, expressed in many books over a 70-year writing life, Mr. Kunitz may be best remembered in academe for the range of colleges and universities where he taught and influenced a younger generation of poets. Among those institutions were Bennington and Vassar Colleges; Brandeis, Columbia, Princeton, Rutgers, and Yale Universities; and the University of Washington.
