Poe in Richmond
While many cities claim Edgar Allan Poe as their own, Poe considered Richmond his hometown. The River City is the alpha and omega of Poe’s literary legacy. It is here where he wrote his first lines of poetry, got his first job in journalism, and gave his last public reading before his death. This presentation follows Poe through his many years in Richmond to show how the city influenced his greatest works. Presented by the Poe Museum.
