Sundance author Jeanne Rogers, long-time member of Bearlodge Writers and Wyoming Writers, Inc., will be honored at a publication party and book signing for her book, Standing Witness: Devils Tower National Monument, A History, on May 11, 2-4 p.m. at the Visitor Center at Devils Tower National Monument. The event is hosted by the National Park Service and Devils Tower Natural History Association.
Published by the National Park Service as part of the Centennial celebration, Standing Witness: Devils Tower National Monument, A History is based on years of dogged research by the author. Designed as a commemorative history of America’s first national monument, the 290-page trade paperback includes photographs, an extensive bibliography, and a complete index.
Jeanne was recently invited to contribute to a forthcoming collection of poems to honor Nebraska’s Ted Kooser, a former U.S. Poet Laureate. Her work is also included in three collections of women’s writing, several literary chapbooks juried by national award-winning writers, and many regional publications.
FMI: Linda Tokarczyk, Devils Tower Natural History Association, at 307-467-5283 Ext. 631 or Linda_Tokarczyk@partner.nps.gov; Jeanne Rogers at 307-283-2125 or jrogers@collinscom.net.
The Wyoming Arts Council believes that experiencing the arts should be accessible for all, including people with mental and/or physical disabilities, older adults, military/veterans, people living in institutions and those who lack access to the arts due to geographic isolation, cultural difference and economic hardship.
