Biographical History
Byron Herbert Reece (1971-1958), American poet, novelist, farmer, teacher, resided in Blairsville, Georgia.
"Byron Herbert Reece was the author of four books of poetry and two novels. During his short career he was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize, earned two Guggenheim awards, and served as writer-in-residence at the University of California at Los Angeles, Emory University in Atlanta, and Young Harris College in Towns County. Lauded by Atlanta Constitution editor Ralph McGill as 'one of the really great poets of our time, and one to stand with those of any other time,' Reece never achieved wide recognition. He is known today as the poet whose old-fashioned, finely crafted ballads and lyrics celebrate the life and heritage of the Blue Ridge Mountains." - "Byron Herbert Reece."
