(Experimental Theater in the SW corner basement of the Fine Arts Building. Now Wheel Chair Accessible and ADA approved.)
Season Opening--Reynolds Series Presents Outrider Poet Anne Waldman
“[Waldman] is the fastest, wittiest woman to run with the wolves in some time”- Ken Tucker, The New York Times
Poet Anne Waldman has been an active member of the “Outrider” experimental poetry community for over 40 years as writer, sprechstimme performer, professor, editor, “magpie” scholar, infra-structure and cultural/political activist. She grew up on Macdougal Street in Greenwich Village where she still lives part-time, and bi-furcated to Boulder, Colorado in 1974 when she co-founded The Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics with Allen Ginsberg at Naropa University, the first Buddhist inspired school in the West. She currently serves as Artistic Director of its celebrated Summer Writing program. Allen Ginsberg has called her his “spiritual wife.” She is the author of over 40 books of poetry including Kill or Cure, Marriage: A Sentence, Structure of the World Compared to a Bubble, and the poetic text: Outrider which includes an interview with Ernesto Cardenal. Her most recent book-length poem is Manatee/Humanity (Penguin Poets 2009). She is also the author of the legendary Fast Speaking Woman (City Lights, San Francisco), now translated into Italian, Czech and French, as well as the 800 page epic Iovis trilogy (Coffee House Press). She is editor of The Beat Book (Shambhala Publications) and co-editor of The Angel Hair Anthology (Granary Books), Civil Disobediences: Poetics and Politics in Action (Coffee House) and Beats at Naropa (Coffee House 2009). She has been a student of Buddhism since 1962, a feminist, and an ambassador for the oral revival of poetry, appearing on stages from Berlin to Caracas, from Mumbai to Beijing. She has been instrumental in encouraging poetry projects world-wide and has helped organize poetry programs in Vienna and Indonesia. She has worked extensively with her son, musician and composer Ambrose Bye, for whom and “out of” whom FIRST BABY POEMS was written 27 years ago. Their “her poetry-his music-collaborations” include the CDs In the Room of Never Grieve, Eye of the Falcon and Matching Half. He has been a ‘muse’ and inspiration.

Sam Hamill was born in the spring of 1943. While in college, he worked in voter registration drives, ran for California State Assembly as an anti-war candidate, and began participating in poetry readings associated with Robert Bly’s and David Ray’s Poets Against the War in Vietnam.
In 1972, with Tree Swenson and William O’Daly, he founded and edited Copper Canyon Press, one of the most distinguished literary presses of the last 40 years, and where he edited the Selected Poems of Thomas McGrath; co-edited the definitive edition of McGrath’s epic Letter to An Imaginary Friend; co-edited The Complete Poems of Kenneth Rexroth; edited Toward the Distant Islands: Selected Poems of Hayden Carruth; and edited untold numbers of younger (and elder) poets for 32 years.
Hamill served on the Board of Directors of the Jefferson County Domestic Violence Program in the early 90s, and in the 80s worked extensively with battered women and children. Invited to the White House by Laura Bush for an evening celebrating American poetry on the eve of the invasion of Iraq, the president having just outlined his plans for “shock and awe,” Hamill declined the invitation, extending his own invitation to fellow poets to “speak for the conscience of our country.” The result was Poets Against War and the compilation of over 20,000 poems.
Sam Hamill is the author of fourteen volumes of original poetry including Almost Paradise: Selected Poems & Translations (Shambhala, 2005), Dumb Luck (2002), Gratitude (1998), and Destination Zero: Poems 1970-1995 (1995). He has also published three collections of essays, including A Poet’s Work (1998), and two dozen volumes translated from ancient Greek, Latin, Estonian, Japanese, and Chinese, most recently, Tao Te Ching (2005), The Essential Chuang Tzu and The Poetry of Zen (with J.P. Seaton), Narrow Road to the Interior & Other Writings of Basho, and Crossing the Yellow River: Three Hundred Poems from the Chinese.

Eddie Chuculate's story, "Galveston Bay, 1826," was juror Ursula K. Le Guin's favorite in the O. Henry Prize Stories 2007 (Anchor Books).

Madonna," is forthcoming in Spring 2010 from Black Sparrow Books/David
R. Godine, Publisher in Boston. He has published stories in Weber Studies, Many Mountains Moving, The Iowa Review, Manoa and Blue Mesa Review.

story forthcoming in Winter 2009-2010 the Kenyon Review. He
graduated with a degree in creative writing from the Institute of
American Indian Arts in Santa Fe and held a Wallace Stegner creative
writing fellowship at Stanford University.
"Galveston Bay, 1826" won me first, and last, by surprising me: every sentence unexpected, yet infallible. On rereading, both qualities remain.Where are we, among these coyote mirages, this endless herd of antelope? What is this beautiful place? Is it the land of magical realism? Not exactly. It's a bit north of that. It's nearer home. It's the way things were, and aren't. So, who are these fellows we're riding with, and where are they going? War party, no? No. They're tourists, off to see the Great Lake. Juror Favorite:Ursula K. Le Guin on "Galveston Bay, 1826" by Eddie Chuculate.
“My hat is off to Stephen Graham Jones, because he is the kind of author that makes the frustrated writer inside every book reviewer cringe with self-doubt.” -PopMatters“Jones has exploded the conventional rhythms of novelistic narrative.” -The Austin Chronicle
Stephen Graham Jones' most recent two novels are Ledfeather and The Long Trial of Nolan Dugatti. His next book is The Ones that Almost Got Away," collection of horror stories. He's been an NEA Fellow, has won the Texas Institute of Letters Jesse Jones Award, Literal Latte Short-short contest, Writer’s League of Texas Fellowship in Literature, Independent Publishers Award for Multicultural Fiction, and has more than a hundred stories published. He teaches in the MFA program at the University of Colorado at Boulder. Other books include: All the Beautiful Sinners,Bleed into Me,Demon Theory,The Bird is Gone,and The Fast Red Road.
Ledfeather: Set on the Blackfeet Reservation in Montana, and spanning 125 years, this is a mesmerizing tale of characters bound by the mystical ties of familial love, death wishes, and survival.
