Tomorrow is the 200th anniversary of Walt Whitman’s birth. The Beinecke Library is marking the occasion with a pop-up exhibit of letters, manuscripts, and artifacts from its Whitman collection, including the author’s last pair of eyeglasses. Novelist Michael Cunningham wrote about Whitman’s glasses for us in 2010.
