Poet laureates do a lot more than write poetry.
Since 1985, have worked to promote the literary arts and poetry throughout the Nutmeg state, visiting schools, performing spoken word and passing on poetry to the next generation of writers.
There is no straight path to this position. Some of our guests today have been writing poetry all their lives. Others got bitten by the poetry bug a little later.
Today, three poet laureates from around our state join us in the studio.
GUESTS:
- º£½Ç»»ÆÞ State Poet Laureate
- Manchester Poet Laureate
- Hartford Poet laureate
