Prick up your ears, poetry fans: Grace Schulman will take to the lectern to read at Sunday’s gathering of the Poetry Marathon in Amagansett. The Springs part-timer not long ago pulled down a Frost Medal from the Poetry Society of America for her distinguished lifetime achievements. A distinguished professor of English at Baruch College, she is the author of numerous collections of poems, most recently “Without a Claim.” She edited “The Poems of Marianne Moore” and in 2010 came out with “First Loves and Other Adventures,” a book of essays on artistic influences and the writing life.

Ms. Schulman will be joined by Elise Paschen, whose 1996 volume, “Infidelities,” won a Nicholas Roerich Poetry Prize. Her work has appeared in The New Yorker and Poetry magazine. She will read from her latest collection, “The Nightlife,” which was published in May.

The free readings take place at the Marine Museum on Bluff Road, which is open for touring before the 5:30 p.m. start time. A reception follows.
