"We didn't wait around to be discovered. We discovered ourselves," poet Anne Waldman told Galleycat--reviving the singular art of the poetry chapbook.

In this video interview, the celebrated poet explains what she learned about self-publishing over the course of her career. In addition to writing, Waldman co-founded of the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics at Naropa Institute with Allen Ginsberg--a fitting teacher to conclude National Poetry Month.

Last week Honor Moore, editor of "Poems from the Women's Movement," hosted a poetry reading at Saint Peter's Church in Manhattan--bringing together generations of renowned poets to celebrate the release of the Library of America anthology. GalleyCat interviewed a number of these poets, including Erica Jong about the lack of publishing parity and Honor Moore about how "Male Approval Desire" hobbles women.
