Robyn Schiff returns to The Met to read from her poem, “Information Desk: An Epic” in which she recounts what it was like to work at the Museum while establishing herself as a young writer.
“Though I haven’t worked inside the Information Desk now for more than twenty years,” she writes, “the experience has so asserted itself into my art that I regard the Information Desk as my private writing desk; I am always seated there.”
