Poets in Performance with Bill Moyers

Celebrating National Poetry Month

Here is another one from Bill Moyers & Company:

"What if some of the greatest poets in America came together to read their works, and you were the only person in the audience? It might be something like this, and a great way to celebrate Poetry Month."

Over the years, Bill Moyers has welcomed some of America’s best poets to share their works and inspiration. Many of those writers have performed at the Geraldine R. Dodge Poetry Festival, which Bill and his colleagues covered for television specials including Fooling with Words (1999), The Language of Life (1995) and Sounds of Poetry(1999). Below, enjoy a showcase of such poetry from past productions and very recently from Moyers & Company, performed by the poets who dreamed them up, or by other artists who, like Bill, simply adore poetry.
