James Dickey is known for the best-seller Deliverance, but he was primarily a poet, considered the best in the country at one time.

His most famous poem is Falling, based on a real story about a stewardess who falls from an airplane. She rips her clothes off because she doesn't want to die in a stewardess outfit.
