Chebacco Chats: MDI Poetry with Carl Little

Click here to join the Zoom webinar - it’s the same link every Thursday.

In honor of National Poetry Month, host (and poet) Jenna Jandreau invites special guest (and poet) Carl Little to curate a selection of place-based poetry of MDI from a variety of poets.

Little’s poetry has appeared in a wide range of literary journals, including the Paris Review, Off the Coast, Hudson Review and Words & Images. He is the author of Ocean Drinker: New & Selected Poems (Deerbrook Editions). His poetry has appeared in several anthologies edited by Wesley McNair. A native New Yorker, Little holds degrees from Dartmouth (BA in English), Middlebury (MA in French) and Columbia (MFA in writing).


Chebacco Chats, our weekly web series, features authors, historians, and others who study and celebrate history, the great place that is Mount Desert Island, and the way the island impacts the wider world.

Season Four considers the theme of this year’s Chebacco, “The Maritime Edition,” and welcomes Josh Smith, Tim Garrity, Bill Horner, Julia Gray, and more, to talk about their articles on embargo history, the Berwind mutiny, youth sailing, Cranberry Isles in the Age of Sail, etc.

Chebacco Chats are live on Zoom, and recordings are made available the week after they air.
