Ken Waldman combines original poetry, old-time string-band music, and smart storytelling for a performance uniquely his own. Since 1995, he's appeared in venues including the Kennedy Center Millennium Stage, the Dodge Poetry Festival, and the Woodford Folk Festival (Queensland, Australia). This will be his first time back in Elko after a 2017 visit. Ken’s books consist of 16 full-length poetry collections, a memoir, a creative writing manual, a kids' book, and his 2022 novel, Now Entering Alaska Time, published by Cyberwit Press of India. He also has nine CDs.

Says the Austin Chronicle: “Feels like a Ken Burns movie . . . Always recommended.”

Says Ken Waldman: “Somebody's got to be doing all this.”

It’s all a part of the 2022 Wild Ride–a year of performances and thought-provoking programs recognizing the unfolding stories of life in the American West. Because your story is still a story to tell.
