About this listen

The is a special episode to begin season 3 of The Two Boots Word Vault Podcast. It is a recording of a reading I did on May 9,1990 with my friend and publisher, Jim Dochniak. Jim published my first broadside Men Don't Dance in America in 1983. I didn't know him at the time. Meridel LeSueur had herd me read the poem at an open reading at the Greater Midwestern Book Show and commanded Jim to publish the poem. This 1990 reading took place at the bookstore owned by my friend, Anthony Signorelli. That evening in Tony's bookshop Jim introduced my to Scott King, who eventually published four of my poetry collections. This was a very special reading for me, and the only time Jim and I read together.
