苏联出生的伊利亚·卡明斯基因他的诗集赢得了许多奖项，敖德萨之舞（图珀洛出版社，2004年），被评为2004年度最佳诗歌书前言》杂志and recipient of the Whiting Writer's Award, the prestigious American Academy of Arts
and Letters' Metcalf Award, the Dorset Prize. In 2008, Kaminsky was awarded Lannan
Foundation's Literary Fellowship, and in 2009 selections from失聪的共和国,his latest work, received Poetry magazine's Levinson Prize. His anthology of twentieth
century poetry in translation, the艾柯国际诗歌选集（HarperCollins 2010），于今年3月出版。 关于Ecco选集,Carolyn Forche writes, "This brilliantly assembled gathering of world voices reads
as a symphony of utterance beginning to end, an international conversation of the
highest order, regarding the questions and concerns of humankind, beyond borders and
all other such barriers, real or imagined. Abundant thanks especially to the editors
and translators of this magnificent work." Now a resident of San Diego, Kaminsky
teaches Contemporary World Poetry, 创意写作, and Literary Translation in San
Diego State University's MFA Program in 创意写作.
