Listen to my 2020 conversation with poet and vital force in the Hudson Valley poetry community, Teresa Costa. Teresa is the founder and host of WOMPS – Word Of Mouth Poetry Series housed at the Art Bar in Kingston, N.Y. for the last few years. Teresa’s work has been recently featured in Gasconade Review book # 5 & CAPS 20th Anniversary 2020 & Home Planet News. Teresa, a compelling conversationalist, reads and discusses Jazz Poets and Beat Poets as well as her own poetry and her WOMPS Series.

Planet Poet’s Poet-At-Large, Pamela Manché Pearce discusses the life and work of Phillis Wheatley, the first African-American author of a published book of poetry.

Yours in Radio, Sharon
