"Public Service in the Garden"
Robert “Bob” Tanem ’53 (2015, Community) retired from his career as a commercial nursery owner and founded the gardening program at Homeward Bound of Marin, a homeless shelter and service center in Novato, California. Tanem transformed a parking lot into an organic garden, which provides produce for shelter residents and donated 400 pounds of food to a local charity in its first year. More recently the center expanded the program by turning a courtyard into an edible landscape, and the garden supports Homeward Bound’s culinary academy and catering program.

Born in Odessa, Ilya Kaminsky immigrated to the United States in 1993 when his family was granted asylum by the American government. Polish poet Adam Zagajewski says of Kaminsky, "He grafts the gifts of the Russian newer literary tradition on the American tree of poetry and forgetting." Kaminsky teaches comparative literature, poetry and literary translation at San Diego State University.
