Noel Polk was a professor at Mississippi State University (not to be confused with Ole Miss, the University of Mississippi), an expert on Faulkner and Welty, and an editor whose name you will find everywhere in recent editions of their works, most especially the Library of America volumes, and the "corrected" editions of Faulkner. Sadly, he passed away in 2012. I think he could have given us even more to think about if he had stayed with us a few more years.
