Born in Concord, Massachusetts, Charles W. Pratt attended Phillips Exeter Academy for his high school years, and then returned there to teach in the 1960's. In the early 1980's, he and his wife Joan bought an apple orchard in nearby Brentwood, NH which they have operated ever since. The central poems of his first book "In the Orchard" was a group of poems written with the encouragement of an Individual Artist Grant from the New Hampshire State Council on the Arts; his chapbook Still Here (winner of the Finishing Line Press Prize in Poetry" followed in 2008.
From The Box Marked Some Are Missing includes selected poems from three of Pratt's earlier books, along with a generous number of poems that have not appeared in book form before. The whole of Pratt's long and distinguished writing career is represented. Pratt's poems often quite formal, but usually in disguised fashion are as tart and crisp as the apples from his orchard, and will delight many kinds of readers.
