Jane Gentry on Good Morning America

Just received this e-mail from the Carnegie Center for Literacy and Learning:

Be sure to tune in to ABC’s GOOD MORNING AMERICA tomorrow morning, WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 5, when Kentucky’s own Poet Laureate Jane Gentry Vance will appear on the show.

Tomorrow marks the 1-year “paper anniversary” of GMA’s four co-hosts’ appearing alongside one another, and as part of the celebration, longtime host and native Kentuckian Diane Sawyer will be honored with a poem created for her and read aloud by the Poet Laureate of her home state, our very own and much beloved Jane Gentry Vance.

Over the holiday weekend the GMA crews descended on Dr. Vance in her Kentucky home to tape her reading of “Diana of Times Square.” Be among the first to hear the poem tomorrow morning on the show, when Dr. Vance, from her own living room to yours, will honor a fellow Kentuckian with the perfect paper anniversary gift: the gift of words.

The segment should air sometime between 8 and 8:30. Don’t miss it!
