Dated March 3rd, 1981. A typewritten job application letter from Louise Kertesz to James S. Malek, the Chairman of the Department of English at Wayne State University. Kertesz writes to apply for one of the tenure-track assistant professorships that Malek advertised. Louise states that she has taught writing and literature for many years, and has published a book, The Poetic Vision of Muriel Rukeyser, and numerous works of poetry. She has taught at many places, worked at Forbes Magazine while earning her M.A. from Columbia. Kertesz wants a position that will leave her time for research and writing. One of the projects that she wants to work on is a book about Richard Eberhart geared toward an audience of “educated non-specialists” rather than strictly academics. She also plans to write a number of articles on women poets, and finally, Kertesz intends to write more poetry.
