Janet Brof published a poetry book titled Tell Them My Love Has Come. Janet writes: “I have begun doing readings at libraries in New York City. Though I entered Brown as a math major, I discovered in my first year it was poetry that was my medium thanks to Brunonia and to a returned veteran at Brown. Sara Hurdis, Charlie Philbrick, and Jay Saunders Redding ’28, ’32 AM encouraged me—bless them.”
