Portland Oregon[edit]

The bio data box says he was born in "Portland". There are many places named Portland; this needs to be specified as Portland, Oregon. The bio data is imported from a site called "wikidata" which does not seem to allow me to edit it. Skepticalgiraffe (talk) 13:32, 3 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Bad references[edit]

His MFA at University of Iowa is listed twice, as 2004 and 2012. Which is correct?
