Vladas Braziūnas 
Author

* 17.02.1952, Pasvalys, Lithuania
lives in: Vilnius, Lithuania
Vladas Braziūnas is a Lithuanian poet, translator, and essayist; a member of the Lithuanian Writers' Union and the Lithuanian PEN center.

At Vilnius University Braziūnas studied journalism and Lithuanian philology. He has mostly worked at various cultural and literary publications and has served as an editor-in-chief for the weekly Literatūra ir menas (Literature and Art). Since 1996, Braziūnas has concentrated on creative work.

Braziūnas' poetry was first published in 1974. However, the first book of poems Slenka žaibas(The Lightning Bolt's Drift) was held up at the publisher's for seven years due to its “ideological and artistic (!) immaturity”. The year it was published (1983) Braziūnas received Zigmas Gėlė prize for the best poetry debut.

<br

Braziūnas has published translations of Byelorussian, Croatian, French, Latgalian, Latvian, Polish, Russian, Serbian, and Ukrainian poetry, and Latvian, Russian, Ukrainian and Byelorussian proze. For his achievements in translating Ukrainian poetry, Braziūnas received the Taras Sevchenko fund award in 2002.

He lives in Vilnius.
