Nadine Budbill
Through Nadine’s role as the Literary Executor of the David Budbill Literary Estate, she stewards her beloved late father’s body of work and creative legacy.
In the 1970’s, writer David Budbill—a recent arrival to Wolcott, Vermont—was inspired by his own working-class background to shine a light on the lives of his new neighbors who were, in turns, beautiful, ingenious, struggling to survive, and completely overlooked by the powers that be.
These poems became Judevine, a raucous, moving, and plain language collection that resonates to this day with its enduring themes of rural poverty, injustice, and economic and social struggle. Presented by Nadine Budbill (David’s daughter and Literary Executor) this talk introduces David and his work, followed by a selection of his evocative and timeless poems.
