Event Details
Join us on Sunday, November 10th, at 3:00 pm for a poetry reading and q & a with William Huhn. All are welcome! Refreshments will be served.
Piermont author William Huhn grew up in an old house in Pennsylvania. He studied classical violin from age five, then took up old time fiddle. Shortly after graduating from Vassar College with a chemistry degree, he published his first poem. Uninspired by lab work, he played fiddle across Europe, to finance his poetry. His poems found their way into The Carolina Quarterly, Verse Daily, Talking River Review, 34th Parallel, and elsewhere, and they form the backbone for his first full-length collection, Bachelor Holiday (BlazeVOX Books). The travels themselves led to a sequence of narrative essays found in American Literary Review, Fugue, Pembroke, Rosebud, etc. Eight of these were listed as a “Notable Essay” in The Best American Essays. Today he lives in Piermont with his wife, son, and baby girl. For more information please visit williamhuhn.com
