Price poets Nancy Takacs and Jan Minich will read from their poems April 9th
at 7:00 at the Salt Lake Public Library as part of the City Art Reading
Series.
Nancy Takacs teaches English at the College of Eastern Utah. She has two books
of poetry: Preserves by City Art Press, 2004; and a chapbook Pale Blue Wings
by Limberlost Press, 2001. A chapbook, Juniper, is forthcoming from Limberlost
Press. The recipient of a 2005 Ucross residency, The Discovery/Nation award,
Two Individual Utah artist grants, and other residencies and poetry awards,
she has also taught a poetry program for male inmates at the Central Utah
Correctional Facility through the Utah Arts Council. Formerly from Bayonne,
New Jersey, she lives in Wellington, Utah. Her poetry examines natural
landscapes and their inhabitants, family violence, relationship, gender, and
Catholicism. Her work also sometimes juxtaposes the landscapes of New Jersey
and Utah.
