Bud Werner Memorial Library

Ken Waldman draws on his 25 years in Alaska to produce poems, stories, and fiddle tunes to create a performance uniquely his own. A former college professor, Waldman published six full-length poetry collections, a memoir, a children's book, and released nine CDs that combine old-time Appalachian-style string-band music with original poetry. Since 1995 he’s toured full-time, performing at some of the nation’s leading universities, festivals, arts centers, and clubs.
