Led by writing faculty member Suzanne Gardinier, this talk will focus on Gardinier's friendship with Regina Arnold (1948-2006), founder 25 years ago of the Right to Write program, which links the College to the teaching of writing in Westchester County jails. Gardinier will also talk about her recent experience teaching a combined class of poets at the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility for Women.
Suzanne Gardinier is the author of 12 books, most recently Amérika: The Post-Election Malas, Atlas, & Notes from Havana. She's taught at Sarah Lawrence since 1994 and lives in Manhattan.
