We're pleased to share the announcement that poet Matthew Cooperman has been named a Guggenheim Fellow for 2025. Matthew is the author of two Parlor Press books: the atmosphere is not a perfume it is odorless (2024) and Spool (2016; Winner of the New Measure Poetry Prize).

Here's what poet and Guggenhein Foundation President has to say:

“At a time when intellectual life is under attack, the Guggenheim Fellowship celebrates a century of support for the lives and work of visionary scientists, scholars, writers, and artists. We believe that these creative thinkers can take on the challenges we all face today and guide our society towards a better and more hopeful future.”
