Emily Dickinson is a major influence on Roni Horn's art, so it is only fitting that the poem featured on the Hassenfeld Harborway this spring is Dickinson’s "I’m Nobody! Who Are You?". The first line of the poem became Horn's sculpture, "Key and Cue No. 288." To mark the occasion, a group of today’s leading poets will gather to celebrate Dickinson’s work and share their own: Gail Mazur, Joyce Peseroff, David Rivard, and Rosanna Warren, and Lloyd Schwartz.
