Feature interview on Daniel P Quinn in Irish-American Post, Wisconsin, Spring, 2009.

WINTER/SPRING 2009 / VOL. 9 ISSUE 1
Poet/Producer Quinn Takes the Long View

By Megan Mueller

Daniel Quinn loves his life as a poet as well as his various roles in theater, despite the struggles they entail. He points out that "it's a bumpy life. It's very hard. It takes tremendous effort and determination to raise the grant money and to get things done well, it's a miracle. It's hard to accomplish but it's amazing to look back and see that it's happened in front of your own eyes."

As a child,… Continue

Much can be said as I have written op-ed pieces for The Herald-News, a Chapter in my book: Exits & Entrances on Lyons and Paterson (2008 Author House).

One can think back to the architectural and spiritual legacy of Lyons and Paterson, Gaetano Federici and Southern Italy, or today to the Peru Fest, and fabulous cuisine and bakeries of the Arab-American community on the South side, or be nostalgic for Lou Costello, the old and now new Fabian Theatre (s).

One can still see the ever present Falls, even better after a rain storm, or hear the text of William Carlos Williams' PATERSON, or HOWL at the Storm via Ginsberg, but their poetry has now become part of the Literary fabric of Paterson.

And speaking of fabric, we return to the silk mills, the upcoming Centennial moments of the 1911 Triangle Shirt Waist Fire which helped fuel the 1913 strike in Paterson, and the ascendancy of the Botto House and its ascendancy into history, and the labor movement, benefiting all immigrants (somewhat akin to the passage of Obama's Health bill.).

Or one can be blinded by the insolence of the powers that be that Paterson belongs to them or someone else, and is not the symbol of a shared cultural legacy. Some things have happened in Paterson over the last 30 years that have been restored to vigorous life, others still await as a pile of ruins. Everywhere there is factional infighting. Let there be Peace at last and let in begin as Paterson moves toward becoming a National Park fulfilling the august dreams of Alexander Hamilton, and the legacies of the industrialists from Catholina Lambert to William Hobart

Am still hoping to bring l of my productions to Ireland or the Dublin Theatre Festival, but I have not made the proper contacts so far. My 1890's musical collage After The ball, or my funny irreverent production of Latter-Day litany would each do well there...

Years ago, I saw a dreadful production at the Abbey to an almost empty theatre, and then a disappointing versiion of The Bacchae, sort of reset in Baghdad, but it didn't quite work. I appeared in Limerick when I was doing a mini-book tour in 2005/06 during February/March and took the train to Dublin, so now I understand the relative size of the country vis-avis the usa... Jim Sheridan is a friend of mine from NYC who founded the Project Arts Center, but we have been out of touch recently...

Michael Healy does not ring a bell - the name is pure Cork. Cork has a couple of theatres but Dublin is where most of the arts action is.

Even when I lived in Dublin, I spent more time talking about going to productions than actually getting my ass in gear - The Abbey is world class when it wants to be - there is huge depth for a small city with Project Arts Theatre putting in over 25 years of pushing the envelope.

Ciao Daniel,
Si parlo Italiano, un po di Francese e Spagnolo.
Saluti e Buon Anno Nuovo, Mauro

Happy New Year, Daniel! Very interested in your book, I will have to get myself a copy. Always think of you when I have Italian cookies.
Best for 2009-Anne
