Among J.T Ledbetter’s credits are POETRY, PLOUGHSHARES, AMERICAN LITERARY REVIEW, THE SOUTHERN REVIEW, PRAIRIE SCHOONER, POET LORE, and others. His poems often concern people and farms who are beat down by poor crops and bad weather. Charles Van Doren calls Ledbetter’s work “a report of a vanishing world that was always achingly inarticulate and therefore of violent. Heart.” His latest collection is OLD AND LOST RIVERS, Lost Horse Press.
