Wisconsin People & Ideas – Winter 2019

In this issue: Dr. Evermor gets a TV show, the Bubolz Nature Center gets a microgrid, and Cornerstone Press gets busy with three new series. We look at the grain-to-glass philosophy that infuses the spirts at 45th Parallel Distillery in New Richmond and take a ride-along with newly minted Wisconsin Poet Laureate Margaret Rozga. After a deep dive into the flooding of the Driftless Area we emerge on the shores of Lake Pepin to meet print- and book-maker Gaylord Schanilec. Contest-winning fiction, poetry, and reviews of new titles by Wisconsin authors round out another exciting issue chock-full of Wisconsin ideas.

For Driftless farmers, the question is not if they will see another flood but when.

While her writing is grounded in the life of her Bay View community, it often reaches out and touches our collective memory.

Leap. It’s a word that artist and amateur naturalist Gaylord Schanilec uses frequently. In fact, Schanilec lives by the leap, often choosing artistic projects that require him to leap, both technically and conceptually.

The future is all about water. And here in Wisconsin, we’ve got it. The problem is: The rest of the world wants it.
