Full-program video: Tom Raworth Memorial Tribute: April 6, 2018
Video highlight clips: Stephen Emerson | Norma Cole | Jennifer Dunbar Dorn | Miles Champion
We remember poet and friend Tom Raworth, with readings and tributes, at UC Berkeley's Maude Fife Room in Wheeler Hall. Miles Champion, poet and editor of Raworth's As When: A Selection (Carcanet, 2015) will be flying in from New York City, and other poet and artist friends from nearer by and far-flung places will be present, the latter mostly via audio recording or written memories and tributes.
Co-sponsored by The Poetry Center and UC Berkeley Department of English.
