Her best known work is Felt (2001), a collection of poems based on the interconnectedness of all living things, for which she received the Bobbitt National Prize for Poetry from the Library of Congress in 2003. She taught creative writing at University of Michigan from 1983 to 2001 and now holds the Ann S. Bowers chair as Distinguished Professor of English at Cornell University. She has also taught creative writing at University of California, Los Angeles in 1991 and as the Holloway Poet at University of California, Berkeley in 2004.
