When people call "the inaugural poet," they don't mean that he's the first poet ever.
But he is rare, in that he recited his poetry at a presidential inauguration (Obama II, 2013). There's much to Blanco's work, from poetry to memoir and beyond.
He brings his talents back to Ashland at the invitation of Chautauqua Poets & Writers (tonight, April 16). And he visits The Exhange for a second time.
