Frances McCue in White Center talking about Richard Hugo

Kreg Hasegawa is hosting a reading with Frances McCue on Sunday June 3, West Seattle Public Library, 2-3 PM. Frances will present a lecture and discussion on Richard Hugo, a poet who was born and raised in White Center.

Hugo's poetry made him internationally known and created a loyal following. His celebrated poems artfully evoke the intimacy of the Pacific Northwest's austere majesty, its abandoned towns, and its people. Currently, she is finishing a memoir called "Chasing Richard Hugo," a book about her obsession with the deceased poet and his work.

Library events and programs are free and everyone is welcome. Registration is not required.
