Morgan has remained intensely interested in rural ways of the past and much of his writing reflects his vast knowledge about them. He is a native of the mountains of North Carolina, has won numerous awards for his poetry and novels including four fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, a Guggenheim Fellowship, and the North Carolina Award for Literature, among other awards. He is an English professor at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York.
