Benjamin Aleshire, originally from Cuttingsville, VT, is an award-winning poet who edits Honeybee Press, but works as a 'Poet-for-Hire', by creating custom poems for passersby in the street, typed up on a manual typewriter. Aleshire can be found every Saturday at the Farmer's Market in Burlington. For the last several years he was a fixture on Royal Street in the French Quarter of New Orleans, and he is delighted to be participating in the Middlebury Arts Walk. Books and broadsides printed with lead type in a Vandercook letterpress will also be available.
