| "Judy speaks personally and meaningfully about her experience as a first-generation American and how she returned to writing poetry. It is particularly enlightening to learn about her process of writing and the background for some of her deeply-felt poems. Many in the audience--a group of older professional women--commented she was the best, most inspiring speaker for the year" --Vicki Broach, Program Chair, UCR Affiliates. |
