Mapping Identity: A Sense of Place

2002 Writing Conference at the University of Northern Colorado

March 4-8, 2002


Linda Hogan

Most of Linda Hogan’s childhood was spent in Oklahoma and Colorado when not moving with her military family, which kept her from growing up in Indian communities (her tribal affiliation is Chickasaw).  She earned an MA from the University of Colorado in 1978.  She has published seven collections of poetry, four novels, three essay collections, and several plays.  Among her many awards, including fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts, Hogan has received the prestigious Lannan Award, as well as a Pushcart Prize.  She has been a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award and for the Pulitzer Prize.  Hogan is a professor in the English Department at the University of Colorado in Boulder.
