[Insert Title] by Gerry Nolan Printable pdf

Gerry Nolan (1947-2025) pursued many creative avenues in his life, and one of them was writing. He published poetry selections in the early 70s, Captain Asthma and Your Book. More recently he participated in The Salt Creek Collective under the auspices of Indiana University. His taste in poetry was eclectic, from Basho to Bukowski; in fiction, from Melville to Elmore Leonard. His real passion, however, was native American culture and arts, a lifelong pursuit. He was by nature a story teller and a trickster, known to some as “Blue Coyote,” a raconteur, a wit, and a pilgrim in search of truth, beauty, and balance in life’s journey.
