Good luck!! as always Jane. I wouldn't mind seeing that pathetic loud mouth with no other talent except for being Jewish - Jimmy Kimmel, tossed the fuck off the air. Replaced by you. Just this minute I closed my eyes to imagine you doing a monologue on late nite TV and the amazing thing is, I can! I can imagine you doing this. So for all new listeners, and the loyal fans of Jane Crown, both her poetry fans and her show about poetry fans, close your eyes and tell me later; can't you imagine her doing late nite? love a fan

    Kathleen Housley

    Poet Kathleen Housley is a sort of Dian Fossey of human language. In pursuit of its mysteries, she has gone out in language's dark, misty forest and lived among it like a conservation biologist, with her clipboard and binoculars. To our great benefit, Housley is a passionate, meticulous student. In her poems, one encounters a keen, sprightly intellect at play—but there is an unshakeable seriousness, too, a pure, clear, earnest desire for precision. Her thought moves in a graceful rhythm, quick and imaginative. The words themselves become live things, purring and clacking and chattering. Her vision of the world is capacious, tender, and wise, and full of a rich, humane curiosity. With acute, scientific exactness, her poems teach us a delight in the creation, in its multiplicity and surprise. A patient teacher, Housley leads us to the pleasure of the concrete and specific. Birds, animals, reptiles, humans: the poems offer a taxonomy of creation that is at once tender and wise, and a care for the life and nuance of speech that is both urgent and long-sighted. Like all the best poets, Housley is what Fossey might have called an “active conservationist” of the word. Besides being a poet, Housley is an independent writer and researcher with strong interdisciplinary knowledge, spanning American history, art, science, and theology. Her undergraduate degree is from Upsala College and her masters from Wesleyan University. Her biography The Letter Kills But the Spirit Gives Life: The Smiths (1993) was on the Smith sisters who were well-known nineteenth century abolitionists, suffragists, and Bible translators. The book won the Award of Merit from the Connecticut League of Historical Societies in 1994. Her second biography Emily Hall Tremaine: Collector on the Cusp (2001, University Press of New England) was a finalist for the Library of Congress/Connecticut Center of the Book Award in 2002. Tranquil Power: The Art and Life of Perle Fine (2005, MidMarch Arts Press) was rated

    Robert Cooperman

    Robert Cooperman was born and bred in Brooklyn, but has spent a lot of time writing about the Old West, partly because of a childhood love of horse operas and partly for having moved to Denver to study at the University of Denver's Creative Writing Program, which is also where he met his wife, Beth, whose reaction to a poem he submitted for criticism was "Oh dear, this is dreadful." Suffice to say it was love at second sight. Cooperman has published eight collections. IN THE COLORADO GOLD FEVER MOUNTAINS (a triogy depicting the life and death of a boomtown, the hanging of a soiled dove for murder, and the fictionalized travels of an Englishwoman with a Western badnan in the Rockies) won the Colorado Book Award in 2000. THE WIDOW'S BURDEN (a tale ripped from the headlines but transposed to the time of the Colorado Territory) was runner-up for the WILLA Literary Award from Women Writing the West. Another tale of the Old West is his recent collection, A KILLING FEVER , which fictionalizes the horrific adbuction, rape, murder, and attempted murder of two young girls in Casper, Wyoming, but which is also set in the time of the Colorado Territory. Cooperman's latest collection is A TINY SHIP UPON THE SEA, which was inspired by an old Irish folksong protesting the British practice of pressing Irishmen into service in the British navy and army. Forthcoming from Main Street Rag is Cooperman's ninth collection, THE WORDS WE USED, a departure for him, in that these are lyrical poems based on the Yiddish words and phrases he heard growing up. A tenth collection, THE RANCH WIFE, is a contemporary Western, set in a fictional ranching community on the Eastern Plains of Colorado, and is due out in 2010. Cooperman is presently working on a sequel to A TINY SHIP UPON THE SEA and a collection inspired by the folksong, "The Lily of the West."
