From the Newburyport Literary Festival Web site:
"In the sixties, the 'New York School' of poets were known for their urbane wit and interest in the other arts: cinema, music and especially visual art. The poems of George Green and Joshua Mehigan display a similar cultural acumen and play of intellect, but these poets add traditional meter and rhyme to the mix, revitalizing the craft of poetry and reminding us of the poet’s ancient designation as makir, or 'maker.'"
