One of the major poets of the San Francisco Renaissance, Joanne Kyger was born in 1934 in Vallejo, CA. After studying at the University of California, Santa Barbara, she moved to San Francisco in 1957, where she became a member of the circle of poets centered around Jack Spicer and Robert Duncan. In 1960, she joined Gary Snyder in Japan and soon traveled to India with Allen Ginsberg and Peter Orlovsky. She returned to California in 1964 and published her first book, The Tapestry and the Web, in 1965. In 1969, she settled in Bolinas, California, where she continues to reside today. She has published over thirty books of poetry and prose, including The Japan and India Journals: 1960-1964, On Time: Poems 2005-2014, As Ever: Selected Poems, and About Now: Collected Poems, which won the 2008 Josephine Miles Award from PEN Oakland.  Cedar Sigo was raised on the Suquamish Reservation in the Pacific Northwest and studied at the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics at the Naropa Institute. He is the author of eight books and pamphlets of poetry, including Royals, Language Arts, Stranger in Town, Expensive Magic, and two editions of Selected Writings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA note on Joanne Kyger by Robert Creeley  Introduction – Cedar Sigo  Interview with Paul Watsky  from The Japan and India Journals, 1960–1964: March 1962  Two poems from The Tapestry and the Web  Interview with Trevor Carolan  Memories of Kerouac – Joanne Kyger  Letter from Lew Welch (Jan. 9th 1960)  Buzz Time – Joanne Kyger  Buzz photo – Jim Hatch  Two poems from The Tapestry and the Web  Interview with Linda Russo              with photos by Joanne Kyger circa 1958  Letter from Paris (April 19, 1966) – Joanne Kyger \u0026amp; Larry Fagin  Letter from Philip Whalen (1967)  Still from Descartes (film, 1968)  Letter from Charles Olson (1968)  from Descartes and The Splendor Of  Interview with Bobbie Kimball  Cover from Joanne (1970, photo by Bill Berkson)  Letter to Philip Whalen (1969)  from Desecheo Notebook  Interview with Lawrence Nahem  Robert Creeley – Joanne Kyger  Bolinas Hearsay News: Interview with Stephanie Anderson,       covers by Arthur Okamura, Philip Whalen \u0026amp; Donald Guravich  Kent State Arts Festival (1974): broadside and interview  from Trip Out and Fall Back  Gregory Corso – Joanne Kyger  Interview with John Thorpe  “Full of Birds in the First” – Joanne Kyger  Bird Notebooks – Joanne Kyger  Robert Creeley Introduction to Joanne Kyger Reading (1982)  Interview with Dale Smith \u0026amp; Michael Price  from Lo \u0026amp; Behold  Interview with David Meltzer  Joe Brainard – Joanne Kyger  Journal sequence for Joe Brainard – Joanne Kyger  Frames – Anne Waldman (1968)  Questions for Joanne Kyger – Anne Waldman  New Millennium Trip to Patzcuaro – Joanne Kyger (2002)  Interview with Tyler Doherty and Tom Morgan  DEER CROWN – Michael McClure (2003)  Interview with Chris McCreary  “School for Flowers” – Joanne Kyger (July 19th 1995)  “When I step through the door..” – Joanne Kyger (1986)","brand":"Wave Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49536264044887,"sku":"9781940696584","price":17.09,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781940696584.jpg?v=1731901628","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/there-you-are-interviews-journals-and-ephemera-9781940696584","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
