description: "Michael Rumaker was a writing student at Black Mountain College during the final traumatic years of the college. From a blue-collar background, his personal poverty paralleled that of the school. Teachers like Charles Olson and Robert Creeley helped him to a good start in gritty published stories and longer fiction, and he later produced important chronicles of the American gay experience. "
