Heart of a Poet: Ray Hsu

Award-winning young poet Ray Hsu is a former self-professed 'slacker kid' who rides the line between traditional and experimental poetry. His book of poems, 'Anthropy' won the 2005 Gerald Lampert Award and was short-listed for the Trillium Book Award for Poetry. Ray is currently completing a Ph.D. at the University of Wisconsin in Madison.

Heart of a Poet introduces the featured artists and their writing through interviews, spontaneous recitations in and around their communities, readings at various locations in Toronto, and the many experiences both large and small that fill their days and help shape their poems.

The series Executive Producer is Maureen Judge of makin' movies inc. and series host is spoken word poet Andrea Thompson. It's a hip show that takes viewers inside the poetry community, in all its various forms, alternate incarnations and unfettered diversity.
