Matthew Zapruder Reading


On Wednesday, November 18, The California Writers Series hosted the poet Matthew Zapruder, who read from his poetry collections Come on All You Ghosts and Sun Bear and from a nonfiction manuscript-in-progress about how to approach and engage poetry.  The reading was a resounding success, with Zapruder following his poems by engaging in a question-and-answer session with the audience and signing copies of his books.

Many thanks to Matthew Zapruder for sharing his work with us, and thanks to Marit MacArthur for arranging the reading; Curt Asher and the Walter Stiern Library for hosting; Poets & Writers, Sigma Tau Delta, and the CSUB English Department for sponsoring; and Eileen Montoya and Milissa Ackerley for managing arrangements and publicity.
