---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When award-winning poet and playwright Grace Cavalieri was in college, few women poets were published. Her professors told her that the work of Edna St. Vincent Milay was like "little pools of green vomit."
Today, Cavalieri, author of numerous books of poetry and plays, is in her 30th year as producer and host of the radio show "The Poet and the Poem," which is recorded at the Library of Congress and distributed via NPR satellite. Her books of poetry include "Pinecrest Rest Haven," "What I Would Do for Love: Poems in the Voice of Mary Wollstonecraft," and her newest work "Water on the Sun" (translated into Italian by Maria Enrico). Among the many awards, she has received are: the Allen Ginsberg Award for poetry, the Pen-Fiction Award for Short Story and the Silver Medal from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Cavalieri is married to sculptor Kenneth Flynn and they have four daughters and four grandchildren. Her new play "Quilting the Sun" premieres in February in Centre Stage, S.C. She conducts workshops on poetry throughout the country.
Over the years, Cavalieri has interviewed poets from former U.S. Poet Laureate Robert Hass to David Wagoner to 2006 Pulitzer Prize Winner Claudia Emerson. Recently, she allowed Scene4 to turn the tables. By telephone and e-mail, Cavalieri talked with me about a wide range of topics–from growing up in Trenton, N.J. to radio to writing about the war in Iraq.
In the full disclosure department: I have heard Cavalieri read her poetry twice, participated in one of her workshops and greeted her at a few Washington, D.C. area poetry events. I do not know her well. But, anyone (with a heartbeat) falls under Cavalieri's spell. She is a Renaissance women with the warmth of the sun.
I invite you to meet Grace Cavalieri.
"I stopped. The wheels froze
on the rug as I looked
at my foe
'ME wants the bike?'
I felt the sweet pleasure of
superiority, the first ache
of it, age three.
There would be no contest. I
could play as long as I liked.
I had him by the pronoun.
It was the happiest day of my life."
from "Language Lesson in Water on the Sun"
Cavalieri, who was born in 1932 and grew up in Trenton, N.J., said that she had a "blessed childhood." Her father and mother were from Italy. "My father was an intellectual. He didn't want us to grow up in the Italian section. I'm Jewish," she said, "we didn't live in the Italian ghetto." It was a "merciful life," Cavalieri recalled, "Trenton in the 30's was beautiful. We walked everywhere without fear." People lived within walking distance of each other, went to the same schools, and for a dollar could ride Trenton transit all week, Cavalieri remembered. (Today, she noted, things are different in some of her old haunts. Recently, a decapitated body was found on High Street in Trenton, Cavalieri said.)
Life inside her home was "chaotic," she said, "but outside the house everything was fine." A childhood friend Jan (who died in 1993), gave Cavalieri the stability she needed to thrive. "All my poems are about her....I was so chaotic emotionally, that if I hadn't had that outside structure," she wouldn't have felt such a sense of "rootedness" in her youth, Cavalieri said. "Jan...symbolizes the back yard, flowers, going to the library–the simple things," she said. The emotional chaos inside of her and inside the dynamics of her family, "was difficult to balance with the energy of the outside world which was good to me," Cavalieri recalled.
She grew up without TV, let alone video or the internet. Yet, Cavalieri had her imagination which early on began to grow by leaps and bounds. "We went to this progressive, experimental elementary school. We made our own paper to write with...I wrote this play for our junior high school," she said, "most of the people that came out of the era and that school are...all in the arts." Cavalieri began to "make a lot of my interior life" which is on the page now, she said.
Radio was hot in the 1930's, and Cavalieri (who said that from birth "a blueprint for communication" was in her DNA) jumped at the opportunities to be a part of this medium. She did a high school radio program in Trenton and "when I was smaller, we did magical shows," Cavalieri recalled.
Throughout her life, she has used her art (whether poetry, writing plays or being a radio host) to communicate and to help others communicate. "The minute I was born, I smelled it {communication}. I was able to jump on any opportunity I saw to communicate," Cavalieri said, "it showed up on the stage. The stage extended itself to me..radio extended itself."
With one hitch. "My whole life was overcoming the people who tried to thwart that," she recalled. Her father wanted to prevent his daughter from "the world, from being harmed," Cavalieri said. She couldn't take a scholarship to drama school or do an all night radio show in college. "Because there was no, no, no! There was always no! That was the first word I learned," Cavalieri recalled. Her father said, "if Grace went to New York, she'd have a nervous breakdown the first week," she remembered, "my mother-in-law, who was fabulous and married six times, said, 'so what?' But, now I know so well that he was really right," she added.
Her mother died when she was 53. "I found her body two weeks before I had my first baby, " Cavalieri said, "most of my father's 'no's' were to protect her from the devastation I was bound to run into." She felt "completely accepted" by her mother and that her father was "so authoritarian," Cavalieri recalled.
But, she isn't bitter about this now. "I make my students write a writing exercise...where they have to list...everything they can think of about their fathers and mothers," Cavalieri said. She does this so they can "for their own spiritual development" understand why they chose what they chose and stop blaming their parents. "Positive always attracts negative," Cavalieri said, "the negative is always going to come in there for you to overcome."
"You asked why I was studying botany.
It came from visiting Eton.
They were
Discussing the need for gentlemen
To know such subjects as
The theory of whales."
from "I Gave You My Work, Gilbert" in "What I Would Do for Love: Poems in the Voice of Mary Wollstonecraft"
Despite the obstacles, Cavalieri went on to college and graduate school (she has an M.A. in writing from Goddard and did post graduate work in English at the University of Maryland at College Park). It was hard though for her as a woman to enter the arts, she said. "I still feel as if I'm behind the eight-ball," she mused. When Cavalieri was small, Rudyard Kipling was in the library.
"In 1970, I go to teach...at Antioch and I have an anthology, of I think it was 900 pages. There were five women in it," she recalled, "I'll never forget it." The cultural revolution had occurred, but publishing didn't catch up with the voices that emerged in the 1960's until the end of the 1970's, Cavalieri said. "The glass ceiling for Mary Wollstonecraft {the 18th century feminist and author of "A Vindication of the Rights of Women"} was very low and very thick," she noted. Though very grateful for the progress that has occurred, Cavalieri said that it's still a bit harder for women.
"Mrs. P had never had much nurturing,
she admitted that to the soft-spoken lady in a pink smock with a badge.
In fact, she didn't know what the word meant. She thought it
meant chewing or something furry..."
from "Pinecrest Rest Haven"
To Cavalieri, art comes from the personal. "Those things are the things that I am obsessed with, the things that start in the kitchen," she said, "the betrayals before you're five years old." The artist makes her or himself vulnerable by saying what he or she believes "from the heart," Cavalieri said, "that is a dangerous way to live." The "currency" of the heart leads either to triumph or downfall, she added. "I don't achieve it all the time. But I know some poets who do," she said.
Artists have a role to play in speaking out about injustice such as the war in Iraq, Cavalieri said. But "if it's political from the standpoint of you have a platform, then it isn't even yours," she added. On the day of our interview, Cavalieri started writing a poem about a little boy holding his father's finger in the mall. "With such obedience that it scared me," she said, "That may not sound like it has to do with the war in Iraq, but it does." Any time anyone squeezes someone's arm not out of love and it hurts, that "all becomes Iraq," Cavalieri insisted. Artists make consciousness, she said. "It may not sound like we're saying important things, but everything we say that is different..from what's in the newspaper" is important, Cavalieri added.
Though Cavalieri uses her personal life in her art, there are limits on what she will reveal. "I go to the point where it won't hurt a relationship," she said. Cavalieri and her husband have been married for 54 years. "Fortunately, the reason we're together is that we support each other's art," she said, "so I can say anything I want. But I will stop where it would hurt him or the children." There are some things (such as male poets talking about "the deliciousness of making love" when their wives are in the front row) that are just better off not being art, Cavalieri opined.
Cavalieri, is not only one of the most productive, but one of the most joyful creative artists on the planet. When asked what she liked about teaching, she joked, " I get high with a little help from my friends." The fear of failure is my greatest fuel, Cavalieri said, then laughed, "high test. I recommend it." She loves hosting "The Poet and the Poem." "I adore looking at my poet and having that poet talk just to me," Cavalieri enthused. It's like having a magic wand, she said.

"This book is a home run!"
C. Peter Wagner, Wagner Leadership Institute
“…extremely practical and genuinely profound … a must read for all Christians.” -- Ed Silvoso, Harvest Evangelism
In his book The 9 to 5 Window, Os Hillman equates work with worship and shows this to be a deeply spiritual truth. By following his guidance we can all make the secular sacred and so transform our lives. Don't miss this splendid book!
Ken Blanchard, Co-author The One Minute Manager®, and The Secret
What happens when Christian believers take the Word of God literally and begin to apply it where they spend sixty to seventy percent of their waking hours? What happens when they use their spiritual authority in their work lives, reflecting their spiritual value system in their area of influence? What happens when Christians move in a spiritual dimension in their work lives as few have endeavored to do before now?
What happens is that lives, workplaces, cities and nations begin to be transformed by the power of Jesus Christ. His prayer in Matthew, which says “Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven,” becomes a reality in the here and now.
Os Hillman is one of the leading authorities on faith at work today. The 9 To 5 Window: How Faith Can Transform The Workplace, provides an in-depth look at this new move of God and how Christians can practically implement their faith with their work life. Topics include facts on the current movement, how to bring the presence of God into your workplace, developing an intercessory prayer team at work, transforming your workplace, city, and nation for Christ, and much more. Hillman combines his ten years of experience working in the faith at work movement with 20 years as an advertising executive.

Praise for The 9 to 5 Window
Os Hillman has written a book that is extremely practical and genuinely profound. Os addresses how to resolve the tension between the pulpit and the marketplace by showing pastors what is in the heart of Christians who feel a call to ministry but not to the pulpit. He draws on his own insights but also on what he constantly gleans from others in his God given networking ministry. This book is a superb how-to manual and a must read for all Christians.

As a former businessman, I’m delighted to see the growing movement of “marketplace ministries” encouraging Christians to serve God where they spend most of their time—on the job. Not only does The 9 to 5 Window address issues that have caused believers to separate work and ministry, but it also provides a host of guiding principles to those who want to effectively impact their workplaces for Christ. This book helps all of us to see ourselves as ministers!
Dr. Tom Fortson
President and Chief Executive Officer, Promise Keepers
Arguably, Os Hillman is the most knowledgeable person today in the rapidly escalating Faith at Work movement. The 9 to 5 Window will give you an accurate, thorough, and enjoyable overview of one of the most crucial things that the Spirit is saying to the churches in this season.

I have read many of these marketplace books and they usually follow the same theme. But in [this] case I was particularly impressed. And especially with the chapters on Hearing God [and] Receiving only from God. Like [Os], God has taken me through very deep water and my only desire is to honour and love Him. I have been very blessed by [his] daily TGIF Marketplace Meditation. Thank you for everything that you are doing to support and bless us in the marketplace.

"The 9 to 5 Window" clearly should be the workplace Bible. Os Hillman has weaved a tapestry of life between the covers of this book. There is not a day that goes by that someone, on some level does not mention the undercurrent of discontent as it relates their purpose in life and the challenge of blending the realities of the workplace with their personal faith. Many are unnecessarily suffering in silence. For me, it became an obsession; the high stakes search for my destiny was preoccupying my mind and disturbing my sleep. It rendered me professionally disoriented. I now know I am not the only one. I knew there were clues to be discovered and I was determined to find them. Every clue was examined and each took me to the next one. I stumbled on to Os Hillman's website and after watching the video clip, I knew I had found a major clue. He not only got it--he has devoted his life to making sure we all get it. I would have moved the universe for the information I have discovered in "The 9 to 5 Window." This book not only makes the case for how Faith can transform the workplace; it actually puts life in perspective, inclusive of finding the purpose for your life. The flagship chapters are Chapter 10, "Receiving Only What God Gives You," and chapter 11, "Do not Reach for the Power." These chapters are particularly important because when a person is hungry for something, everything looks good. Os Hillman has graphically and painfully, from his personal experience, along with the life of Joseph, put in perspective the need to listen for God's input in the face of independent actions. Had I had the power of this book years ago, it is my belief that my life's journey would be at a different level. As the workplace continues to detour to chaos and security in the workplace continues to phase into ambiguity; leaders at every level will need to ground themselves in something greater than themselves, and certainly greater than their job description. It is my contention that the grounding should start with "The 9 to 5 Window." Not only will it put the 9 to 5 Window in perspective, it will add stability and hope to the 24-hour window.

C. Peter Wagner, Wagner Leadership Institute
“…extremely practical and genuinely profound … a must read for all Christians.” -- Ed Silvoso, Harvest Evangelism
In his book The 9 to 5 Window, Os Hillman equates work with worship and shows this to be a deeply spiritual truth. By following his guidance we can all make the secular sacred and so transform our lives. Don't miss this splendid book!
Ken Blanchard, Co-author The One Minute Manager®, and The Secret
What happens when Christian believers take the Word of God literally and begin to apply it where they spend sixty to seventy percent of their waking hours? What happens when they use their spiritual authority in their work lives, reflecting their spiritual value system in their area of influence? What happens when Christians move in a spiritual dimension in their work lives as few have endeavored to do before now?
What happens is that lives, workplaces, cities and nations begin to be transformed by the power of Jesus Christ. His prayer in Matthew, which says “Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven,” becomes a reality in the here and now.
Os Hillman is one of the leading authorities on faith at work today. The 9 To 5 Window: How Faith Can Transform The Workplace, provides an in-depth look at this new move of God and how Christians can practically implement their faith with their work life. Topics include facts on the current movement, how to bring the presence of God into your workplace, developing an intercessory prayer team at work, transforming your workplace, city, and nation for Christ, and much more. Hillman combines his ten years of experience working in the faith at work movement with 20 years as an advertising executive.

Tune to “You Raise Me Up” by Josh Groban
===============================================================
Rick Warren
Dr. Rick Warren is passionate about attacking what he calls the five “Global Goliaths” – spiritual emptiness, egocentric leadership, extreme poverty, pandemic disease, and illiteracy/poor education. His goal is a second Reformation by restoring responsibility in people, credibility in churches, and civility in culture. He is a pastor, global strategist, theologian, and philanthropist. He’s been often named " America's most influential spiritual leader" and “ America’s Pastor.” (1)
As a pastor, he founded Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, Calif., in 1980 with one family. Today, it is an evangelical congregation averaging 22,000 weekly attendees, a 120-acre campus, and has more than 300 community ministries to groups such as prisoners, CEOs, addicts, single parents, and those with HIV/AIDS. Recently, the church fed 42,000 homeless people – three meals a day – for 40 days.
He also leads the Purpose Driven Network of churches, a global coalition of congregations in 162 countries. More than 400,000 ministers and priests have been trained worldwide, and almost 157,000 church leaders subscribe to Ministry Toolbox, his weekly newsletter. His previous book, The Purpose Driven Church is listed in “100 Christian Books That Changed the 20 th Century.” Forbes magazine called it, “The best book on entrepreneurship, management, and leadership in print.”
As a global strategist , Dr. Warren advises leaders in the public, private, and faith sectors on leadership development, poverty, health, education, and faith in culture. He has been invited to speak at the United Nations, the World Economic Forum in Davos, the African Union, the Council on Foreign Relations, Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, TIME’s Global Health Summit, and numerous congresses around the world. TIME magazine named him one of “15 World Leaders Who Mattered Most in 2004” and in 2005 one of the “100 Most Influential People in the World.” Also, in 2005 U.S. News & World Report named him one of “ America’s 25 Best Leaders”.
As a theologian, Dr. Warren has lectured at Oxford, Cambridge, the University of Judaism, the Evangelical Theological Society, and numerous seminaries and universities. His six books are known for explaining theology in understandable ways and have been translated into more than 50 languages. Dr. Warren says he teaches theology without using theological terms and telling people it is theology. His latest book, The Purpose Driven Life, has sold 25 million copies and is the best-selling hardback book in American history, according to Publisher’s Weekly.
As philanthropists, Rick and Kay Warren give away 90 percent of their income through three foundations: Acts of Mercy, which serves those infected and affected by AIDS; Equipping the Church, which trains church leaders in developing countries; and The Global PEACE Fund, which fights poverty, disease, and illiteracy.
MEDIA QUOTES
The Weekly Standard - “… clearly among the two or three most influential Americans working from the west coast.”
The Economist - “Rick Warren is arguably the most influential pastor in America.”
The Times ( London) - “ Business and political leaders across America are turning to Rick Warren for guidance.”
Forbes - “Were it a business, Saddleback Church would be compared with Dell, Google or Starbucks.”
ABC News - “ The Purpose Driven Life is the epicenter of a spiritual shockwave taking root across America in unlikely places like offices and university campuses. It has become a movement.”
TIME - “Movie stars and political leaders aren't the only ones turning to Rick Warren for spiritual guidance. Millions of people – from NFL and LPGA players to corporate executives to high school students to prison inmates – meet regularly to discuss The Purpose Driven Life.”

When you're lost inside I

If darkness blinds you I
I will shine to guide you
Everybody wants to be understood
