Dear Elizabeth

The complicated relationship between the poets Elizabeth Bishop and Robert Lowell is revealed in nearly thirty years' worth of correspondence. Taken from their exchange of letters, Dear Elizabeth is a study in friendship, intimacy, and the power of words.

Recorded in Los Angeles before a live audience at the UCLA James Bridges Theater in July 2015.
