Anne Stevenson reads two poems, 'Poem for a Daughter' and 'A Marriage', from the DVD-book IN PERSON: 30 POETS, filmed by Pamela Robertson-Pearce & edited by Neil Astley (Bloodaxe Books, 2008). Pamela has been filming poets reading their work for Bloodaxe's archive, website and DVD-books. These two poems by Anne Stevenson are from her POEMS 1955-2005 (Bloodaxe Books, 2005). Anne Stevenson is both an American and a British poet. Born in Cambridge, England of American parents, she grew up in New England and Michigan, and after several transatlantic switches, settled back in Britain in 1964. She has lived in Durham for many years, and we filmed her in the dovecote studio next to Bloodaxe's offices at Highgreen Manor, Tarset, Northumberland, in February 2008.
