Richard Wilbur Richard Purdy Wilbur (born March 1, 1921) is an American poet and literary translator. He is considered by many to be one of the greatest of the 20th century. Working primarily in traditional forms, his work is marked by its wit, charm, and gentlemanly elegance. Wilbur was appointed the second Poet Laureate Consultant in Poetry to the Library of Congress in 1987, and twice received the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry, in 1957 and again in 1989.
Wilbur Ware Wilbur Bernard Ware (September 8, 1923 – September 9, 1979) was an American jazz double-bassist known for his creative use of time and space, his angular, unorthodox solo technique and a distinctive percussive sound. He was a staff bassist at Riverside Records in the 1950s, playing on many of the label's sessions, including LPs with such widely diverse stylists as J.R. Monterose, Toots Thielemans, Tina Brooks, Zoot Sims, and Grant Green.
