A Great Cloud of Witnessing: Arts Journalism of Nancy Bauer - Paperback

by Nancy Bauer (Author), Ian Letourneau (Editor)

From 1980 to 2017, Nancy Bauer was a primary chronicler of the arts scene in New Brunswick, Canada.

She began this career when Joe Sherman invited her to contribute articles for ArtsAtlantic magazine. For the next 37 years, her arts journalism appeared in a variety of periodicals. She capped this vocation with "State of the Art," an 11-year, weekly column for the Salon section of the Saint John Telegraph-Journal.

As a creative writer, Nancy Bauer was a participant-observer and an organizer in the arts. She was among the founders of the Maritime Writers' Workshop, the Writers' Federation of New Brunswick, ArtsNB, the Gallery Connexion, and the Word Feast Literary Festival in Fredericton. She was the publisher and editor of the New Brunswick Chapbook series.

Editor, Ian LeTourneau, has skillfully brought together a selection of her arts journalism brimming with people, places, and events. A Great Cloud of Witnessing provides a lively trip through almost 4 decades in which the New Brunswick arts scene flourished in a particularly creative way.
