Gerald Locklin, Long Beach poet and defining West Coast literary voice, dies

Gerald Locklin, Long Beach poet and defining West Coast literary voice, dies Gerald Locklin, 79, of Long Beach (Family photo) March 3, 2021 1:38 PM PT Print Known by many as the preeminent poet of Long Beach, Gerald Locklin was perhaps even more esteemed among those who knew him as Professor. Over half a century, Locklin was a defining literary voice on the West Coast and beyond as a writer of poetry, fiction and essays, tracing an evolution from hard-drinking, bear-like bacchanalian to gray, slender, sober and ever free-spirited elder statesman of letters. Poet Charles Bukowski’s long-ago praise of him as “one of the great undiscovered talents of our time” has been eclipsed by the years: Locklin published some 150 books and thousands of poems, many in translation and studied and admired around the world.
