Who is the chairman of NEA?

The poet, critic, and best-selling anthologist, Dana Gioia  (Joy-a) in 1977 moved to New York to begin a career in business. For fifteen years Gioia worked as a business executive, eventually becoming a Vice President of General Foods. Nominated by George Bush and unanimously confirmed by the U. S. Senate, Gioia began serving as NEA Chairman in February, 2003. Burning Ladder is a sample of his work.;I hope you enjoy his poems as much as I have. And let me take this opportunity to mention that April is National Poetry Month.
