DESCRIPTION:California Working Class Divas \nCity Lights Poetry Reading\nWith Julia 
 Stein - Nancy Keane - Geri Digiorno - Michelle Baynes, MC Alice 
 Rogoff\nThese four poets have extraordinarily contributed to writing, 
 organizing literary events, and to working class culture. Julia Stein is an 
 anti-sweatshop activist and with her group Common Threads won a 
 libel/slander suit against Guess Jeans for a poetry reading she organized. 
 She teaches at Santa Monica College. Her latest book, Walker Woman, has 
 many poems about fighting cutbacks in a South-Central Los Angeles junior 
 college. Nancy Keane started and has facilitated the 3300 Club poetry 
 reading series in San Francisco’s Mission District. Her books include 
 Symmetrical Reflections (3300 Press), and And Then There Were Nine (volume 
 two), being released 2010. Geri Digiorno is the founder and director of the 
 Petaluma Poetry Walk, going into its fifteenth year. She was Poet Laureate 
 of Sonoma County 2006-2007. Her books include White Lipstick (Red Hen 
 Press) and Rosetta Mary (dPress). She also teaches poetry at homeless 
 shelters and at a shelter for battered women.\nMichelle Baynes had her 
 first book published in 2008 (New Way Media) called Homeless in Petaluma 
 based on the thirteen years she worked with the homeless. Her favorite job 
 was street outreach. She is currently working on another book, Off the 
 Street, with poetry, stories, artwork, and pictures by the homeless, as 
 well as a new book of her own work.\nSee
