ONEONTA – Boston’s Edgar Allan Poe statue, unveiled today, is a work of Stefanie Rocknack, the Hartwick College professor and sculptor.
The “body model” is John Dudek, another Hartwick professor (who is also a member of the City Charter Commission and spouse of the rowing Olympian Andrea Thies.)
The unveiling was the topic of a feature story on the front page of today’s Sunday New York Times, tracing the uneven relationship between the poet, usually identified with Baltimore, and his actual natal place.
