 “Poet of the Deep Song,” is joined in conversation by two lifelong 
 friends, actor Danny Glover and bestselling author Terry McMillan. Dr. Kim 
 McMillon moderates this virtual program, which celebrates the release of 
 Troupe’s new collected poems, "DUENDE: Poems, 1966–Now", a gathering of 
 more than 50 years of lyrical, evocative writing. \n\nThe program also 
 honors Troupe’s years of collaboration with visual artists and musicians 
 and features guest cameos and videos by Mildred Howard, Will Calhoun and 
 J.D. Parran.\n\n\nSPEAKERS:\n\nQuincy Troupe is an award-winning poet who 
 wrote the definitive biography of Miles Davis, Miles: The Autobiography, 
 the Chris Gardner biography The Pursuit of Happyness and a memoir, miles & 
 me, soon to be a major motion picture. Author of 20 books, he conducted the 
 last interview with James Baldwin, which was published as James Baldwin: 
 The Last Interview & Other Conversations. Troupe’s work has been 
 translated into 30 languages. His most recent book of poetry is Duende, 
 Poems 1966 – Now from Seven Stories Press (January 2022).\n\n\nDanny 
 Glover is an award-winning actor, producer and humanitarian with a career 
 that spans more than 30 years. From the blockbuster Lethal Weapon franchise 
 in film to hit television shows such as ER, Glover has portrayed a myriad 
 of popular roles and has distinguished himself as one of his generation’s 
 most consummate actors. Glover’s performances in such classic motion 
 pictures as The Color Purple, Witness and Places in the Heart, have not 
 only showcased his talent and versatility but have also brought him 
 critical and popular acclaim. Honored with Awards from the NAACP, BET and 
 SAG, Glover has received several Emmy nominations for his work in such 
 television hits as Lonesome Dove. \n\n \nTerry McMillan is the acclaimed 
 author of The New York Times bestseller Mama, which won the Doubleday New 
 Voices in Fiction award in 1986 and an American Book Award from the Before 
 Columbus Foundation in 1987. McMillan’s signature humor, wisdom and 
 warmth made Waiting to Exhale, A Day Late and A Dollar Short, The 
 Interruption of Everything, How Stella Got Her Groove Back, Getting to 
 Happy, Disappearing Acts, Who Asked You? and I Almost Forgot About You all 
 New York Times Best Sellers. Waiting to Exhale and How Stella Got Her 
 Groove Back were made into award-winning major motion pictures that proved 
 huge at the box office, and Disappearing Acts and A Day Late and A Dollar 
 Short were adapted into successful television movies. McMillan received an 
 Essence Lifetime Achievement Award in 2008. Beloved by her fans, her books
