Gabrielle Calvocoressi and Sasha Waters: A Handsome Life
In this conversation poet Gabrielle Calvocoressi and filmmaker Sasha Waters will discuss Sasha’s American Masters documentary about Mary Oliver (forthcoming Spring 2026) as a means of entering into the good deep work of figuring what one might mean by “a handsome life”: a phrase that Oliver coined and that seems as profound and good a way to live as any. We’ll talk poems and process, story and mystery. More than anything it will be a chance to think about the vessel of making and the friends (living and dead) that we make along the way.
