Nick Virgilio, Camden's Other Poet

Many people may be aware of Camden as the home of Walt Whitman, but may not know of the city's other poet, Nick Virgilio. Nick wrote haiku. After his death his estate donated his papers to Rutgers University, Camden. For more information, see the university's Nick Virgilio Poetry Project, which includes some of his works, as well as selected articles about him and some scans of drafts of his work.
