KRCB Tribute to David Bromige
Two weeks ago on Wednesday night at 7 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time on KRCB, in Santa Rosa CA, Katherine Hastings presented a one-hour tribute to the late great poet David Bromige, “the author of dozens of books and the recipient of many literary honors, David Bromige was also a former Poet Laureate of Sonoma County, a professor at Sonoma State University, and a mentor to many. His experimental style and sharp wit translated to a large collection of work so varied that the poems could easily be mistaken as the work of many. Born in London in 1933, Bromige died in Sebastopol in June of this year. Participating in tonight’s program will be his wife, Cecilia Belle, their daughter, Margaret, and others. Recordings of Bromige reading his work will also be featured.”
