*You’re Invited!*

*"Frost Live"*
Wednesday, May 4 at 4 p.m.
Cardinal Lounge, Angell College Center

SUNY Plattsburgh and the Plattsburgh Alumni Association invite you to
"Frost Live," a special gathering aimed at recreating the events of
yesteryears and celebrating our connection to the great American poet
Robert Frost. Dr. Ronald Davis, a professor in the journalism department,
will play and discuss a 1959 recording of Frost reading and talking about
his poetry when he was on our campus. In addition, Plattsburgh alumna ’82
and faculty emeritus Nora Montanaro-Davis’ dramatic readings will breathe
life into Frost’s poems.

A celebrated American poet, Frost has deep connections to our SUNY
Plattsburgh family. Throughout the 1940s and ’50s, he was a frequent
visitor to campus and a close friend of former President Edward "Doc"
Redcay. Frost dropped into classes, gave talks, kept an office in Hawkins
Hall and attended parties in his honor at the Cumberland Head home of Doc
and his wife, Lillian.
Doors for the event will open at 3:45 p.m., at which time Dr. Dexter Criss
will play piano, as was Doc's tradition. Light refreshments will be served.
