SUMMARY:Wile & Wing Poetry Book Launch
DESCRIPTION:A poetry reading hosted by author and songwriter Kimi Sugioka.\n\nAuthor and songwriter Kimi Sugioka is a mesmerizing—and folkloric—figure in the Bay Area literary community. She is described as maternal\, witchy\, and passionate by Anne Waldman\, author of Trickster Feminism. For decades\, Sugioka has been involved in the Bay Area’s literary community\, and was a former curator of the legendary Café Babar poetry series of the 1990s. Now\, Sugioka says\, poetry readings are more significant than ever in a shifting San Francisco: “the [literary] community subsists on artistic freedom—and it is still free. There are multiple poetry readings every night and they don’t cost anything. They cut across class\, race and culture\, and engender the expression of diverse voices that share the paradoxical wit\, wisdom\, terror and joy of our times.” \nOn December 17\, the Tenderloin Museum will have the privilege of hosting the book launch for Wile & Wing\, Sugioka’s latest series of poems which explore themes of Invisible borders\, personal boundaries\, and social justice. In classic “Babarian” fashion\, Sugioka will also be joined by authors Natasha Dennerstein and Susan Dambroff\, where they will each read book excerpts and original poems. \nAbout the poets: \nKimi Sugioka \nBorn in Chapel Hill\, North Carolina and raised in Berkeley\, California\, Kimi Sugioka is a poet\, songwriter\, and educator. She performs her work frequently throughout the Bay Area. She has worked in public education for decades\, and earned her BA from San Francisco State University and MFA from the Naropa Institute in Boulder\, Colorado. \nNatasha Dennerstein \nNatasha Dennerstein was born in Melbourne\, Australia. She has an MFA from San Francisco State University. Natasha has had poetry published in many journals internationally. Her collections Anatomize (2015)\, Triptych Caliform (2016) and her novella-in-verse About a Girl (2017) were published by Norfolk Press in San Francisco. Her trans chapbook Seahorse (2017) was published by Nomadic Press in Oakland. She lives in Oakland\, California\, where she is an editor at Nomadic Press and works at St James Infirmary\, a clinic for sex-workers in San Francisco. She was a 2018 Fellow of the Lambda Literary Writers’ Retreat. \nSusan Dambroff \nSusan Dambroff is a poet\, performer\, and teacher drawn to the detailed placement of words and the alchemy of timing and sequence.

SUMMARY:Gary Snyder and Jane Hirshfield
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored by Poetry Society of America \nGary Snyder began his career in the 1950s as a noted member of the “Beat Generation\,” though he has since explored a wide range of social and spiritual matters in both poetry and prose. Snyder’s work blends physical reality and precise observations of nature with inner insight received primarily through the practice of Zen Buddhism. He has been described as the “poet laureate of Deep Ecology”. Snyder is a winner of a Pulitzer Prize for Poetry and the American Book Award. His awards also include the Bollingen Prize\, an American Academy of Arts and Letters award\, a Guggenheim Foundation fellowship\, the Bess Hokin Prize and the Levinson Prize\, the Robert Kirsch Lifetime Achievement Award\, the Shelley Memorial Award\, and the Ruth Lilly Award. \n\nJane Hirshfield’s ninth\, forthcoming poetry collection\, Ledger (Knopf\, 2020)\, centers on the crises of climate and biosphere\, and on our interconnection with one another and all beings.  She is the founder of #PoetsForScience\, a project originating with the first March For Science in D.C. in 2017\, and the author of two now-classic books of essays\, Nine Gates and Ten Windows. Her honors include fellowships from the Guggenheim and Rockefeller foundations and the National Endowment for the Arts\, as well as the Poetry Center and California Book Awards. The Washington Post has named her “among the modern masters” and the New York Times called her last book\, The Beauty\, “a deep well of wisdom.”
