Celebrate the Life and Poetry of Tony Quagliano

Celebrate the life and poetry of Tony Quagliano - in words, poetry and music.

Tony Quagliano (1941-2007) was a poet, essayist, literary critic, jazz writer, editor, and Professor of American Studies at UH Manoa and the Japan-America Institute for Management Science (JAIMS).

Tony's contributions to Hawai`i and to the world of poetry were many and wide-ranging. His was a singular voice in poetry, and he reveled in the possibilities of language, the sounds of words, and the potential for philosophical complexities. He was feisty, humorous, joyfully exuberant, and had an inviolable sense of justice - and all of that in engaging poetry.

Everyone wishing to speak about Tony and read one of his poems is most welcome.
