Diana Whitney Reads Poetry at Galaxy on Tuesday, July 29 @ 7pm

Join us in welcoming Diana Whitney for a celebration of her first collection of poetry, "Wanting It" on Tuesday, July 29th, at 7 p.m. at the Galaxy Bookshop in Hardwick, Vermont.

Much of "Wanting It" was written in and about the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. Diana graduated from Dartmouth College and Oxford University, where she was a Rhodes Scholar, and attended the MFA Program for Writers at Warren Wilson College. Her essays and poems have appeared in The Boston Globe, The Washington Post, and The Crab Orchard Review.

She has been a commentator on VPR and received writing fellowships at the Vermont Studio Center and the Banff Centre for the Arts. Her parenting column, Spilt Milk, was syndicated for four years in several Vermont newspapers. Diana lives in Brattleboro with her husband and two daughters, and teaches at Core Flow Yoga & Sport in a small studio attached to her family’s Victorian farmhouse.

Diana Sabot once served as events coordinator for Galaxy, bringing in such readers as Galway Kinnell and Judith Jones.

"Wanting It" is being released by Harbor Mountain Press in June.
