Youngstown-born poet Ross Gay won the 2021 Jean Stein Book Award and its $75,000 cash prize.
Gay, who moved to the Philadelphia area at a young age, won the award for “Be Holding, A Poem,” which was published in 2020 by the University of Pittsburgh Press. It is described as a book-length poem and homage to basketball legend Julius Erving of the Philadelphia 76ers. It weaves in cultural and historical references, zooming in for a close look at Erving and back out to all of the forces that made the basketball legend possible.
Gay is a professor at Indiana University and returned to Youngstown two years ago as a guest of the Northeast Ohio Master of Fine Arts.
