Richard Michelson & Maxine Kumin

December 23rd, 2006

In Part One of this week’s show, we talk with author and poet Richard Michelson about growing up Jewish in an African-American neighborhood in New York and his books for children coming out of that experience. We talk about two of them: HAPPY FEET and TOO YOUNG FOR YIDDISH. We also talk with Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Maxine Kumin in this excerpt from a previously aired interview about her latest collection of poems, JACK, AND OTHER NEW POEMS.
