Patti Smith by Hanekroot

I  recently published a memoir, Serendipity: Chance Pilgrimages in which I recount places that I traveled that became pilgrimages. The first pilgrimage was to the Mike Douglas Show in Philadelphia in the 1970s to hear Patti Smith perform as well as a trip to Glassboro State College to interview her art professor. My girlfriend and I were her only fans in the audience at the Mike Douglas Show. After the show Patti and I took a photo. I'd love to share the photo with you - and also the story of how she became my heroine from when I was 17 and Horses debuted. You can read an excerpt of the book on Amazon.

Sunday Times article about Patti Smith

Dear All Patti Smith Blog, I am an intern for the Sunday Times Magazine and we are publishing an article this Saturday all about Patti Smith and her life, including an interview with her. She discusses her art, including Horses, Easter and Just Kids; her personal life and her relationships with Mapplethorpe, as well as her approaching UK tour. It would really mean a lot to us if you could share the article when it goes online, on your blog. The article will be published to this website:https://www.thetimes.co.uk/. This Sunday. Thank you

Our own Neda Ulaby got to have coffee with Patti Smith and talk about her new memoir, M Train. (ARE WE DYING OF ENVY? JUST A LITTLE.)

“Her last memoir, Just Kids, from 2010, chronicled her relationship with Robert Mapplethorpe before he became known as one of the best and most provocative photographers of the 20th century and before she became, well, a rock goddess,.” Neda reports. 

Just Kids won a National Book Award. It spent 42 weeks on the bestseller lists. Smith spent years crafting it, after promising Mapplethorpe, who was then dying of AIDS, that she’d write about him.

M Train is a very different project, impressionistic and digressive.

“It’s like a mental train, a train of thought,” Smith says over coffee at New York’s Whynot Coffee. “It’s a mystery train. I just hopped on the train and see where I went every day.”

Find Neda’s full story here (and Patti Smith’s 2010 interview with Morning Edition about Just Kids here).

Inside it he inscribed a few lines of poetry, portraying us as the gypsy and the fool, one creating silence; one listening closely to the silence. In the clanging swirl of our lives, these roles would reverse many times.
