Christine Krikliwy
Sending Off a Lifelong Friend
The Poetry Center's Christine Krikliwy retires after fifteen years
For those of us who have worked with her in one capacity or another over the years, it feels like the end of an era, an era in which we have come to rely on her conscientious accuracy, her amazing range of competence and knowledge, her willingness to take on the extra task without complaint, and her unfailing good humor. ―from Richard Shelton's tribute to Christine
