Karl Kirchwey (born February 25, 1956) is an American poet who has lived in both Europe and the United States and whose work is strongly influenced by the Greek and Roman past.

While he is best known for his poems, he also is a book reviewer, award-winning teacher of creative writing, translator, arts administrator, literary curator, and advocate for writers and writing. He was director of the Unterberg Poetry Center of the 92nd Street Y for 13 years, directed and taught in the Creative Writing Program at Bryn Mawr College from 2000 to 2010, served as Andrew Heiskell Arts Director at the American Academy in Rome
