Pete Morgan’s first full-length collection of poetry appeared from Secker & Warburg in 1973. In 1976 he was one of a team of six British poets invited to tour the United States as part of the American Bicentennial celebrations. He has also visited France and Spain under the auspices of the British Council.

Morgan has held a number of creative writing appointments, notably Arts Council Fellow in Poetry at the University of Loughborough.

Two further full-length collections – The Spring Collection and A Winter Visitor – have also appeared from Secker.

He died in 2010.
