Happy 200th birthday, Poe!

January 19, 1809 is the birthdate of Edgar Allen Poe. He would have been 200 years old this year, and I just wanted to take this time to pay homage to this great American author. Happy birthday, Edgar!

My good friend Mark Redfield made a great movie called the Death of Poe that explores the strange circumstances of Poe's death. To find out more and get your own copy, go to http://www.redfieldarts.com/

Celebrations are being planned all over to celebrate the 200th birthday anniversary of Poe - to find out about some of the bigger ones, go to:
