Jesse Parent: February 5, 2015

Fans of one of Utah's most well known performance poets packed the house last night to hear Jesse Parent perform live (and get a signed copy of one of his books).  Having been referred to his YouTube videos when researching slam poetry, it was nice to find that not only is he a wonderfully engaging performer in person, he's also a generous writer and all around nice guy.  Several of our writers told stories of being helped by Jesse in some way as a writer and many others stayed after the open mic to ask questions.  Thanks for sharing your work, Jesse, and thanks for always being willing to help developing writers!
