This handout image provided by the National
Portrait Gallery is a pastel on illustration board showing
Langston Hughes, who began writing poetry as a teenager living
in Lincoln.
America often knows the names but not the
faces of its great poets. Now the Smithsonian's National
Portrait Gallery is introducing dozens of 20th-century poets to
Washington visitors. "Poetic Likeness: Modern American Poets"
opened Friday and will be on view through April.

The
Cardinals have done it again. St. Louis scored four runs in the top of the ninth
inning to beat the Washington Nationals 9-7 Friday night, winning the
deciding Game 5 of the National League division series. The shocking comeback
was reminiscent of last year's postseason heroics that led to a World Series
title.
