Jodie Hollander
Jodie Hollander (CAS’02) of Fort Collins, Colo., spent a month in England, where she was honored, through the Elmet Trust, as the first poet in residence in the childhood home of poet Ted Hughes. Afterward, she spent time teaching and writing at the Eugene O’Neill National Historic Site in Danville, Calif. In September, Jodie taught a free poetry workshop in celebration of the 100-year anniversary of the Wupatki National Monument and held workshops at the Sedona Arts Center, Arizona State University, and the Seamus Heaney HomePlace in Ireland. She plans to bring the National Park Service’s Poetry in the Parks program to the Pearl Harbor National Memorial and Redwood National and State Parks. She’ll return to the UK in April to work at the Morrab Library and is arranging a memorial reading in May for poet Bob Mezey at the Huntington Library in San Marino, Calif.
