Abstract: Naomi Long Madgett (1923-) is Detroit Poet Laureate, publisher, educator, and Professor of English Emeritus at Eastern Michigan University. She is author of ten books of poems and an autobiography, and editor of two poetry anthologies, thus a recipient of may honors. As an African American poet and publisher, Madgett, though not attached to the Black Arts Movement, made great contribution to the revival of African American literature in and since the 1960s-70s. Prof. Luo Lianggong interviewed Prof. Madgett when he attended the 72nd CLA Convention in Atlanta, USA. This interview covers the issues including her literary creation, poetic ideas, the influences on her, her communications with and comments upon her contemporary African American writers, and her contribution as a publisher to the African American literature. This interview presents a unique perspective to the Black Arts Movement and the 1960s-70s African American literature.
