“Talking to Gerald Stern is like talking to your favorite teacher from high school. He is opinionated, passionate, humorous and exceedingly gracious. He is also a storyteller, and in the 75 minutes of our scheduled 20-minute interview, I felt guilty about interjecting questions, as I did not want to interrupt the flow of his narrative.
Pittsburgh native Stern, an internationally acclaimed poet and National Book Award-winner, visits Oct. 13 to celebrate the opening of his papers at the University of Pittsburgh, and to read at the Carnegie Lecture Hall.”
