Collins is a Distinguished Professor at Lehman College of the City University of New York and has more than dozen books which are collections of his writings.

He was the Poet Laureate of the United States from 2001 until 2003.

He will be reading his poetry Saturday at 10am on the Triad St. Main Stage. A question and answer with the audience and booksigning will follow the reading.
