Motown Writers Network Poet Feature~ David Blair

Reblogged from Motown Writers Network . . . Michigan Literary Network:

• 

As the Motown Writers Network feature poets this April, we cannot forget about one of Detroit’s greatest poets, David Blair.  David Blair was an award-winning, multi-faceted artist: singer-songwriter, poet, writer, performer, musician, community activist and teacher. Born Sept. 19, 1967, he grew up in Newton, N.J., but called Detroit his adopted home. Blair performed all over the world and has friends on almost every continent.
