B IOPIC F ILMS B iopic F ilms (or biographical pictures ) are a sub-genre of the larger drama and epic film genres, and although they reached a hey-day of popularity in the 1930s, they are still prominent to this day. 'Biopics' is a term derived from the combination of the words "biography" and "pictures." These films depict and dramatize the life of an important historical personage (or group) from the past or present era. Sometimes, historical biopics stretch the truth and tell a life story with varying degrees of accuracy. Big-screen biopics cross many genre types, since these films might showcase a western outlaw; a criminal; a musical composer; a religious figure or leader of a movement; a war-time military hero; an entertainer; an artist; an inventor, scientist, or doctor; a politician or President; a sports hero or celebrity; or an adventurer. In many cases, these films put an emphasis on the larger events (wartime, political or social conditions) surrounding the person's entire life as they rise to fame and glory. Some begin with the person's childhood, but others concentrate on adult achievements. Biopics have existed since the earliest days of silent cinema in films such as French filmmaker Georges Melies' feature-length epic Jeanne D'Arc (1899) (and Cecil B. DeMille's

Stephen Dunn Stephen Dunn 2001 Pulitzer Prize Winner for Poetry Stephen Dunn, a Richard Stockton College of New Jersey Distinguished Professor of Creative Writing has won the 2001 Pulitzer Prize for Poetry for his Different Hours collection of poems. Dunn, of Port Republic, a Trustee Fellow in the Arts and Distinguished Professor of Creative Writing, is the author of eleven collections of poetry, including Loosestrife; New and Selected Poems, 1974-1994; Landscape at the End of the Century; and Between Angels. Asked about Different Hours, Professor Dunn said, "This is a book that I think was my best work, and one that I think I was ready to write. I probably couldn't have written it earlier in my career. I hope it withstands the scrutiny of the Prize." Dunn said the rewards likely to come with winning a Pulitzer are "very nice" although not the important thing. "What comes with this Prize is the fact that my work will be looked at with new regard and will be exposed to new readers. That's really the most important thing."

"Moy Sand and Gravel" is his 25th volume of poetry and the ninth collection of his poems. "It's a terrific honor," said Muldoon, who said he was shoveling snow when he got the call from his publisher. "It comes as a complete shock and surprise." The book also recently was shortlisted for the international Griffin Prize for Excellence in Poetry. In addition, it was the winter 2002 choice of the Poetry Book Society for the best book of poems published in that season. "It's certainly well deserved," said poet C.K. Williams, who also is on Princeton's creative writing faculty and won a Pulitzer in 2000. "He's a very unique poet. The fact that he wins prizes on both sides of the Atlantic is great proof of that uniqueness he's valued as much in the United Kingdom and Ireland as he is here."

Today's Globe Politics Opinion Magazine ... Mass. Pulitzer winner is killed in accident September 29, 2004 John E. Mack, a Pulitzer Prize-winning author and Harvard Medical School professor whose research on purported extraterrestrial abductions generated widespread publicity and controversy, died Monday in an automobile accident in London. He was 74. According to Will Bueche, of the John E. Mack Institute in Cambridge, Dr. Mack had been attending a conference in England on T.E. Lawrence. Lawrence is the subject of his psychoanalytic account, "A Prince of Our Disorder: The Life of T.E. Lawrence," which won the 1977 Pulitzer Prize for biography. Dr. Mack was struck by a car while crossing the street. London police pronounced him dead on the scene. "He was a restless, highly creative man who was many-sided," said Robert Jay Lifton, the psychiatrist and author, who was a longtime friend of Dr. Mack's. They worked together in the antinuclear movement, a longstanding concern of Dr. Mack's, and in the application of psychological approaches to the study of history. "He was as sensitive to others' needs as anyone I've known," Lifton said in a telephone interview from his Cape Cod home.
