Paul Muldoon is an Irish poet and professor of poetry, as well as an editor, critic, playwright, lyricist and translator. Born in 1951 in Portadown, Co. Armagh, Northern Ireland, Muldoon was brought up near a village called The Moy on the border of counties Armagh and Tyrone.
As an English student at Queen's University Belfast, Muldoon studied with poet and future Nobel laureate Seamus Heaney and became associated with the Belfast Group, an influential cohort of writers from Northern Ireland. He published his first collection of poetry, New Weather, in 1973, at the age of 21. Described by the Times Literary Supplement as 'the most significant English-language poet born since the Second World War', Muldoon writes verse that is known for its multiplicity of meaning and its use of unconventional linguistic devices.
The same year, he began work as a producer for the BBC in Belfast during some of the most intense years of The Troubles, a period of sectarian conflict in Northern Ireland.
He is currently professor emeritus at Princeton University, where he taught for more than three decades, becoming director of its creative writing program in 1993 and the founding chair of the Lewis Center for the Arts in 2006. He served as Oxford Professor of Poetry at the University of Oxford from 1999-2004. He lives in New York.
