A ray of light shot a bright finger into Milton Kessler’s Binghamton University classroom. He paused, that day’s lesson plan falling away, and began to recite lines from Theodore Roethke’s “What Can I Tell My Bones?”
Moments like these stay with Gerry Crinnin and Zack Grabosky, who studied with the late English professor in the 1990s.
“We were lucky to live through nothing less than a golden age of poetry,” Crinnin said during a recent Zoom discussion hosted by Foundlings Press.
Crinnin earned his bachelor’s in English from Harpur College in 1984, earned his master’s at Brown University and then returned to finish his doctorate at Harpur in 1993. Grabosky finished his bachelor’s in English at Harpur in 1992, followed by his master’s in 1994.
