Michael,
This has been a burning question of yours for a while, eh?

The Morton Marr Poetry Prize is an endowment by Marilyn Klepak of Dallas in honor of her father, whose love of poetry has encouraged her to pass this love on to others.
Back in January, 2015, Rose Kelleher asked for info on Eratosphere, and Terese (who won the award in 2008) was going to email Rose with the information on Helen Schaible.

In addition to Terese, Gail White won third prize in 2014, Chris O'Carroll won special recognition that year, as I did in 2013. Mary Meriam also won an HM. Susan McLean won in 2007. I probably missed someone (sorry, if I did).
Good luck to all Speherians entering this year. As Susan points out, since none of the poems are published, we can also send them to the Nemerov.
Thanks for reminding me about this one, Nausheen!

Just mailed in a slant Petrarchan. Thanks again, Nausheen.
