Peggy Shumaker is the daughter of two deserts—the Sonoran desert where she grew up and the subarctic desert of interior Alaska where she lives now.  A former Alaska Writer Laureate, she is the author of eight volumes of poetry, most recently Cairn—composed, says one critic, in language “both nuanced and sensual”—as well as a lyrical memoir, Just Breathe Normally. Since retiring from the University of Alaska Fairbanks, Ms. Shumaker teaches in the Rainier Writing Workshop at Pacific Lutheran University.

This event is co-sponsored by The Poetry Series.
