Good Authors and/or Poets?

My school is on Block scheduling and therefore my AP Lit and Lang classes ended in Dec. Our class wasn't of AP caliber so our teacher treated it more like SAT prep than AP. However, I need the AP credits for both tests. Can someone recommend some ideal authors and poets for me to read? I have read Austen, Shakespeare, and Miller, but that is it. I know for a fact I need a better basis. PLease help if you can! Thanks!

But you can't go wrong with the classics. I'll try to add more later on.

Hmmm...for the AP Lang test, American authors like Zora Neale Hurston and JD Salinger (Catcher in the Rye) are the most important to read. However, the test is more on analyzing literary elements than compairing literature. That's the AP Lit (generally 12th grade) test.
