New York City is a hard place to be a poet, that's for sure, but harder yet to be a poet and a publisher at the same time.
Tod Thilleman, poet, publisher and entrepreneur, acts as our guide as we beat the streets of the city to discover a vibrant community of poets, writers and independent New York City presses.
Featuring Anne Waldman, Lewis Warsh, Rachel Levitsky, Matvei Yankelevich, Sarah Riggs, Kyle Dacuyan, Christine Sloan Stoddard, Lana C. Marilyn and Jared White.
