Raymond Garlick (21 September 1926 – 19 March 2011) was an Anglo-Welsh poet and editor.[1][2] Garlick was born in London, but grew up in Llandudno, and studied English literature at the University of Wales, Bangor. Whilst there, he converted to Roman Catholicism, although no longer a practising Catholic. He founded and edited the Anglo-Welsh Review.
The poet Peter Finch, chief executive of Academi (the Welsh national literature promotion agency and society of writers) described Garlick as one of the five best mid-20th century English writers in Wales, along with R. S. Thomas, Leslie Norris, John Tripp and Harri Webb.[3]
