Yesterday was the last day of National Poetry Month (who knew?), so Wordcandy Bookshelf reviewed The Poem I Turn To: Actors and Directors Present Poetry That Inspires Them, an eclectic collection of the 80 favorite verses of 42 entertainment figures, from Steve Buscemi to Alfre Woodard to John Landis, accompanied by their notes and commentary. We mention the book (and its included CD) because the site singles out our own Billy Luther for praise: "Director Billy Luther's choice was perhaps the most memorable: Rather than choosing an official, published work, he chose a fascinating poem written by the star of his documentary Miss Navajo, Navajo storyteller (and winner of the “Miss Navajo Nation” beauty pageant) Sunny Dooley."
