The Poetry Society of New Hampshire meets at Gibson's Bookstore on the third Wednesday of
every month. Our headliners this month are Dudley Laufman and Liz Jones.
An open mic follows their readings (arrive early to ensure a spot on
the sign-up sheet). All are welcome, newcomers are encouraged!
Dudley Laufman was raised in the Boston area. He went to
agricultural school but have spent most of my time as a musician. He lives with Jacqueline on the edge of
the woods in Canterbury,
NH, where they earn our money by playing fiddles for
dancing.
In 2009 Dudley was awarded a National
Heritage Fellowship. He is a recipient of the New Hampshire GOVERNOR'S AWARD IN
THE ARTS Lifetime Achievement Folk Heritage Award for 2001. He has been
nominated for a Pushcart Award, and is the subject of a documentary film THE
OTHER WAY BACK.
Dudley has published five trade
edition books of poems: AN ORCHARD &
A GARDEN (William Bauhan Press 1974), MOUTH MUSIC (Wind in the Timothy Press
2001), THE STONEMAN (Shaker Village Inc. 2005), WALKING STICKS (2007), SHE PLUMB NED,
