Word S1 E6: National Poetry Month, Part 1

It’s National Poetry Month, and we take “Word” on the road to Tucson to follow up on planting haiku in the city. We also visit the University of Arizona Poetry Center, home to one of the largest collections of poetry in the nation.

Plus, why are doctors learning about poetry and the arts? Finally, how are writers practicing their craft outside the halls of academia?

Tom Maxedon was the host of KJZZ’s Weekend Edition from 2017 to 2024.
