The broadside, printed in Chicago at Rohner Letterpress, is the 18th created by The Poetry Center in conjunction with its Reading Series since the broadside project began in earnest in 2001 with the publication of James Tate's poem "Shiloh."

The first gallery show of The Poetry Center's broadsides was held during National Poetry Month last April at Bell Studio Gallery in Chicago. Broadsides are available in limited quantities, with the exception of Lawrence Ferlinghetti and Ed Paschke's broadside, which is sold out.
