 \n\nFilmmaker Haydn Reiss (Rumi: Poet of the Heart) and poet Maxine Hong 
 Kingston will be on hand to present the East Bay Premiere of  "Every War 
 Has Two Losers" - A Poet's Meditation on Peace, based on the Journals of 
 National Book Award Winner William Stafford, voiced by Peter Coyote, with 
 narration by Linda Hunt, and music by John Gorka  
 (www.everywar.com).\n&\n"William Stafford & Robert Bly: A Literary 
 Friendship"\nThis extraordinary hour-long film documents the intimate 
 friendship between two of America's greatest poets, both National Book 
 Award winners and peace activists - William Stafford and Robert Bly. Before 
 his death in 1993 Stafford, a uniquely eloquent conscientious objector 
 during WW II, published 65 books of poetry and prose, and won the Western 
 States Lifetime Achievement Award. Robert Bly has already given us thirty 
 books of his poems, prose and translations from many languages. The author 
 of Iron John, co-founder of American Writers Against the Vietnam War, 
 leader of the Mythopoetic Men's Movement, and a popular teacher at the 
 annual Great Mother Conferences, Bly has long provided a desperately needed 
 spiritual depth to contemporary American poetry.   \n\nIn documenting the 
 creative friendship of Bly and Stafford, and then following it with this 
 new film on younger writers' responses to Stafford, Haydn Reiss has crafted 
 two visionary testaments to the sacred power of peace.  KPFA Radio was 
 founded 60 years specifically to promote peace.\n
