Title: A Conversation on Zen Buddhism with Bill Porter
Bill Porter ⽐爾.波特 is an American author and Zen scholar who translates under the pen-name Red Pine ⾚松. His translations have been honored with a number of awards, including two NEA translation fellowships, a PEN translation award, the inaugural Asian Literature Award of the American Literary Translators Association, and more recently a Guggenheim Fellowship, which he received to fund a project which he calls the poetry version of his book Zen Baggage: A Pilgrimage to China 禪的⾏囊 that recounts a pilgrimage to sites in China associated with the beginning of Zen Buddhism. Seven of his books have also been translated into Chinese, including his Road to Heaven: Encounters with Chinese Hermits, which has sold over 200,000 copies since its release as Kong-gu-you-lan 空⾕幽兰.
