The Center's inaugural Writer-in-Residence, P. Scott Cunningham, looks at poetry as one conversation where his personality, concerns and mental processes are always present with real emotion. He is the founder of the University of Wynwood, a nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing contemporary literature in Miami and the director of O, Miami. Cunningham has a BA in Religious Studies from Wesleyan University and an MFA in Creative Writing from Florida International University. He has been published nationally including works in the Harvard Review, Roanoke Review and The McSweeney's Joke Book of Book Jokes (Vintage, 2009).
