Videographer/blogger, poet/narrative artist and former PoemAlley Advisory Committee Chair, Bill Buschel now applies
his gently authoritative vocal presence in two prestigious venues this month.

| Cornelia Street Cafe |

| Dean Kostos |
 |
| Cheryl Boyce-Taylor |
Bill’s sensitive commitment to
Greek culture/mythology and contemporary social observation, expressed through
his Graffiti arts interview program on Hellenic Public Radio, involvement
with assorted PA programs and his blog, Just My Eyes, is answered amply by Cheryl’s bi-cultural
input as a New York spoken-word performer, much informed by her still-vibrant Trinidadian
roots. Click on the title below to find out about her most recent collection, Convincing the Body (Vintage Entity Press, 2005).
As a painter and crossword
puzzle designer, Gary J. Whitehead recites selections from the
forthcoming A Glossary of Chickens (Princeton University Press). A recipient of
the New York Foundation for the Arts fellowship, his accomplishments as a Hudson
Valley-based English teacher were also acknowledged with a Princeton University
Distinguished Secondary School Teaching Award.
