Description

The students at a New York City school discovered how important poetry can
be even in the busiest lives when they asked journalists, politicians,
musicians, novelists, filmmakers, actors and poets, to send in their
favorite verse with an explanation of why they chose it. This book presents
works selected by 50 well-known people, from Jane Alexander to Elie Wiesel
to Tom Wolfe, from Peter Jennings to Isabella Rossellini to Wendy
Wasserstein. Line drawings throughout.
