A selection of his poetry was anthologized in Rolfe Humphries volume New Poems by American Poets #2, published by Ballantine Books.
His undergraduate and graduate study focused on American, British and French literature. He also has an interdisciplinary master’s degree in psychology and sociology, and served on the Board of Directors of the C. G. Jung Foundation for Analytical Psychology.
As he continued to publish poems in regional journals, he simultaneously launched an administrative career with cultural institutions, leaving his post as Development Consultant on the staff of the Metropolitan Museum of Art to establish The Charles Webb Company, Inc., specializing in capital funding for art and history museums, historic houses, musical organizations, and ballet, opera and theater companies. Under his management the firm acquired clients in 35 states, the United
Kingdom, and Italy.
For several years he was Chairman of the Board of the Circle Repertory Company in New York, which deepened his interest in the theater. He has written five plays, which he intends to publish in a single volume in the future.
Now in the final editing stages,The Playoff is a murder mystery and coming of age tale set in the Southern mountains during the segregation era, in which a respected Black high school teacher is arrested for a crime he did not commit. Publication is expected next year.
C. D. Webb’s new novel, now underway, concerns an evangelical fundamentalist preacher whose life becomes steadily more corrupt and licentious, resulting in his fall to, rather than from, grace. Immortal Wounds, a volume of short stories, is nearing completion.
His previously published novels include Jake and Jasmine, and The Credence of Christopher Craig.ver menos
