An autobiography by Richard Blanco, who wrote and read the poem at Barack Obama's second inauguration: http://www.cnn.com/2013/01/20/opinion/blanco-inaugural-poet/index.html
Interestingly, he is only the fifth poet to read at an inauguration ~ and every one before him was invited by a Democrat: Robert Frost by John F. Kennedy, Maya Angelou and Miller Williams by Bill Clinton, and Elizabeth Alexander by Obama four years ago.
