Edgar Allan Poe's 200th Birthday
A Quaint and Curious Time in Baltimore
Edgar Allan Poe is one of the most celebrated American writers, boasting -- among other things -- an NFL team and a beer named after his works. Poe died at age 40, and people across the country celebrate his birth and death annually.
This year is particularly special for Poe fanatics. In honor of his 200th birthday (which is Monday), Baltimore has planned a year of Poe events that will culminate in October with a re-creation of his funeral. Poe lived in Baltimore for several years and died and is buried in the city.
