HUGH WHITTEN brings to the reader his life experiences, from growing up on a farm on the Piedmont Plateau near the Blue Ridge Mountains, then during his twenty-five years as a high school English teacher. Now retired, with his loving wife Ginny, Hugh brings his life's passions together in his own writing. His second collection of poetry, Along The Way, provides a personal glimpse into his journey along with insights and memories of people and events and impressions. Hugh skillfully navigates the hills and valleys of his life through his beguiling poetry. His first collection of poems, Piedmont Poems and Other Reflections, and his most recent collection, Along The Way, complement each other with a continuity of a full life that he has so generously shared.
