 Part Three of “Colorado in Black & White” with Western Slope Poet Laureate, David Rothman, is Monday, March 12 at 7 PM. We will consider the poetry (and some of the prose) of Colorado in English, beginning with Whitman, Longfellow, Robinson Jeffers and Katherine Lee Bates (who wrote “America the Beautiful”), through Yale Younger Poet and Denver journalist Thomas Hornsby Ferril, Mina Loy, Nellie Burgett Miller, the recently rediscovered work of Belle Turnbull, Colorado poets of mid-century such as Allen Ginsberg, John Denver and Kurt Brown, and then some diverse contemporary poets such as Mary Crow, Wendy Videlock, Aaron Abeyta, Rosemerry Trommer, Jim Tipton, Art Goodtimes, Uche Ogbuji, Dave Mason, Joe Hutchison and more. Along the way we will also look at some of the many thousands of poems that came out of the mining camps and the urban newspapers in Colorado’s history. There will be some advance reading available for each session, so we are asking you to sign-up in advance for this program. Please call or email to reserve your spot 970-349-6535 or lisa@gunnisoncountylibraries.org.
