Sunday afternoon
September 23 at 3 pm Stone Ave. Gallery

Tyrone Williams is a poet, critic and professor. Nathaniel Tarn
describes his latest book of poetry, C.C. as an “uncommon rapture, a
burning repetition of home truths, in resolutely future tense.” Williams is
also the author of Convalescence, AAB, Futures, Elections, and Musique Noir.
Two new books, On Spec and The Hero Project of the Century are
forthcoming. He’s presently working on another book-length project for
Atelos Press. His poetry has been anthologized and published in many
magazines. He has lectured and published critical essays and reviews on a wide
range of subjects from poetics to hip hop to Black history to civil rights to
globalization. Williams teaches literature and theory at Xavier University in
Cincinnati, Ohio.
Michael Kelleher is the author of two collections of poems, Human
Scale (BlazeVOX Books, 2007) and To Be Sung (BlazeVOX Books,
2005). His poems and essays have appeared in Jacket, The Poetry
Foundation Website, ecopoetics, The Poetry Project Newsletter,
The Brooklyn Rail, The Buffalo News, Slope, and other venues, and he
has read his work in the U.S. and Canada, and as part of the Encuentro del
Poesia Del Lenguaje in Havana, Cuba in 2001. With Ammiel Alcalay, he edits the
"OlsonNow" blog, which is dedicated to the poetry and poetics of Charles
Olson. He lives in Buffalo, NY, where he works as the Artistic Director
of Just Buffalo Literary Center and as the editor of "In The Margins," the
literary section of artvoice, Buffalo's alternative weekly.
