Description

An Afternoon with Poet Kay Ryan and Marie Dern at Jungle Garden Press

Kay Ryan is the former U.S. Poet Laureate. She is also a Pulitzer Prize and MacArthur Foundation award winner. This year she will be inducted into the American Academy of Arts and Letters.

Marie Dern began Jungle Garden Press in Berkeley, CA in 1974.
