I like this list that a friend of mine posted of the 100 Greatest Writers of All Time. Many fantastic poets are included along with some interesting facts and photography. I like the Saul Bellow photo myself.
A few excerpts:
Of Ezra Pound: "Somewhere between the worst person who was a great poet and the greatest poet who was an asshole"
Of Emily Dickinson: "She is in every poet we read, every word that is written. Even when she is not, she is there, in her lacks."
Of Ovid: "Invented eroticism."
