Our next meeting will be two weeks from tonight.
Short story writer Kent Nelson will be
reading in the Terrace Lounge.
That's April 6th.
The next reading at Pima College will be Tuesday, April 11th,
and the reader is Tom Cobb, reading from his poetry.
We have available tonight some flyers
concerning a new literary magazine, Persona.
We'll have them over at the reception for Miss Glück,
and there's a stack of them up here on the stage.
This is a literary magazine with funds made available
from the Publications Board.
It is for undergraduate university students only.
The deadline for submissions for the first issue is April 1st,
and it's not only poetry--
short fiction, essays, graphics, photographs.
There will be a poetry reading tomorrow night at El Pueblo
Community Center at 6th and Irvington beginning at 7:30.
Some of the readers are Miriam Bornstein-Somoza and Marina
Rivera of our Romance Languages department.
It will be a Spanish and English reading,
and it's followed by a dance.
And it's free.
Louise comes to us most recently from Cincinnati,
where she's just completed a 10-week special seminar.
She's also been associated with, and is
continuing to be associated with,
Goddard College in Vermont.
Vermont is her home.
She's also taught at Iowa and the Fine Arts Work Center
in Provincetown.
She has three collections of poetry--
Firstborn, The House on Marshland, and most recently,
The Garden.
Her work appears in all of the standard poetry magazines,
such as American Poetry Review, Antaeus,
Iowa Review, and many others.
We've been longing to have her here for five years.
We first invited her to come five years ago,
and she was having a baby then and put us off until this year.
We're very happy to have her here.
[LAUGHTER]
She didn't put the baby off.
She just put us off.
Louise Glück.
