P. Scott Cunningham Interviewed in WLRN

AHP author P. Scott Cunningham was recently interviewed by WLRN, discussing his new book, Self-Portrait as the “i” in Florida, and the inspiration behind his poetry. A longtime Miami resident and founder of O’Miami, his collection, released today, centers on parenthood, a changing city, and the realities of Florida beyond its often idealized or misconstrued portrayal in tourism advertising.

I wanted to document the Miami I love, but I also wanted to document these kids at these particular ages … I would say right now I’m mostly writing fatherhood poems, ’cause there’s just so much that I don’t want to forget and I don’t wanna lose the feeling of.

Thanks to Natu Tweh and the team at WLRN for this thoughtful interview. And don’t forget to get your copy of Self-Portrait as the “i” in Florida on sale now!
