Born in Seattle attended the University of California, Berkeley on the G.I. Bill. There he met Ellen King; they married in 1951. In 1956, the Tallmans accepted teaching jobs in the English department at the University of British Columbia, where they helped Earle Birney and Roy Daniells to organize the creative writing department. In 1963, they hosted a poetry conference attended by Denise Levertov, Charles Olson, Allen Ginsberg, Robert Duncan, Margaret Avison, and Philip Whalen. The Tallman home itself also served as a poetry enclave of sorts. It was there that Jack Spicer gave some of his now legendary lectures. Two years later, they held another poetry conference in Berkeley, California. Sometimes criticized by Canadian literary nationalists for turning the Vancouver poetry circle into a California branch plant, Tallman embraced the Black Mountain school approach to poetry, and also was influenced from the Beats and other New American Poets. The fonds consists of correspondence, manuscripts, teaching papers, personal and financial records, material pertaining to the Vancouver Poetry Centre, photographs, audiotapes, ephemera, etc."],"collection_source_collection_id":["MsC 26"],"persistent_url":[""],"item_title":["Warren Tallman interviewed by Roy Miki in Vancouver on February 28, 1983 Session 2 Tape 5"],"item_title_source":["Recording and J-card"],"item_language":["English"],"item_production_context":["Documentary recording"],"item_identifiers":["[]"],"rights":["Copyright Not Evaluated (CNE)"],"creator_names":["Tallman, Warren","Williams, William Carlos","Emerson, Ralph Waldo","Whitman, Walt","Dickinson, Emily","Miki, Roy"],"creator_names_search":["Tallman, Warren","Williams, William Carlos","Emerson, Ralph Waldo","Whitman, Walt","Dickinson, Emily","Miki, Roy"],"creators":["[{\"url\":\"http://viaf.org/viaf/11397708\",\"name\":\"Tallman, Warren\",\"dates\":\"1921-1994\",\"notes\":\"\",\"nation\":[],\"role\":[\"Speaker\"]},{\"url\":\"http://viaf.org/viaf/29542054\",\"name\":\"Williams, William Carlos\",\"dates\":\"1883-1963\",\"notes\":\"Roy Miki's thesis is somehow based on William Carlos Williams, he keeps talking about it all through his interview with Warren Tallman\",\"nation\":[],\"role\":[\"Author\"]},{\"url\":\"http://viaf.org/viaf/27079964\",\"name\":\"Emerson, Ralph Waldo\",\"dates\":\"1803-1882\",\"notes\":\"On the second side of tape one, Warren Tallman keeps talking about Emerson, Emily, and Whitman and their impressive impact on the literary world\",\"nation\":[],\"role\":[\"Author\"]},{\"url\":\"http://viaf.org/viaf/2478331\",\"name\":\"Whitman, Walt\",\"dates\":\"1819-1892.\",\"notes\":\"On the second side of tape one, Warren Tallman keeps talking about Emerson, Emily, and Whitman and their impressive impact on the literary world\",\"nation\":[],\"role\":[\"Author\"]},{\"url\":\"http://viaf.org/viaf/31995584\",\"name\":\"Dickinson, Emily\",\"dates\":\"1830-1886\",\"notes\":\"On the second side of tape one, Warren Tallman keeps talking about Emerson, Emily, and Whitman and their impressive impact on the literary world\",\"nation\":[],\"role\":[\"Author\"]},{\"url\":\"http://viaf.org/viaf/94949252\",\"name\":\"Miki, Roy\",\"dates\":\"1942-2024\",\"notes\":\"\",\"nation\":[],\"role\":[\"Interviewer\",\"Recordist\",\"Speaker\"]}]"],"contributors":["[]"],"Production_Date":[1983],"material_description":["[{\"side\":\"\",\"image\":\"../Uploads/11213/Warren Tallman Fonds_MsC 26.42_101.jpg\",\"other\":\"\",\"extent\":\"1/8 inch\",\"AV_types\":\"Audio\",\"tape_brand\":\"\",\"generations\":\"\",\"Conservation\":\"\",\"equalization\":\"\",\"playback_mode\":\"\",\"playing_speed\":\"\",\"sound_quality\":\"Good\",\"recording_type\":\"Analogue\",\"storage_capacity\":\"\",\"physical_condition\":\"Good\",\"track_configuration\":\"\",\"material_designation\":\"Cassette\",\"physical_composition\":\"Magnetic Tape\",\"accompanying_material\":\"J-card\",\"other_physical_description\":\"Black and white clear jewel case with J-card\"}]"],"material_designations":["Cassette"],"physical_compositions":["Magnetic Tape"],"recording_type":["Analogue"],"AV_type":["Audio"],"digital_description":["[{\"file_url\":\"\",\"file_path\":\"\",\"filename\":\"MSC26-101-SideA.mp3\",\"channel_field\":\"Stereo\",\"sample_rate\":\"44.1 kHz\",\"duration\":\"T00:32:29\",\"precision\":\"\",\"size\":\"34.8 MB\",\"bitrate\":\"32 bit\",\"encoding\":\"WAV for master files and .MP3 for online files\",\"contents\":\"\",\"notes\":\"\",\"title\":\"\",\"credit\":\"\",\"caption\":\"\",\"content_type\":\"\",\"featured\":\"\",\"public_access_url\":\"\"},{\"file_url\":\"\",\"file_path\":\"\",\"filename\":\"MSC26-101-SideB.mp3\",\"channel_field\":\"Stereo\",\"sample_rate\":\"44.1 kHz\",\"duration\":\"T01:05:00\",\"precision\":\"\",\"size\":\"70.3 MB\",\"bitrate\":\"32 bit\",\"encoding\":\"WAV for master files and .MP3 for online files\",\"contents\":\"\",\"notes\":\"\",\"title\":\"\",\"credit\":\"\",\"caption\":\"\",\"content_type\":\"\",\"featured\":\"\",\"public_access_url\":\"\"}]"],"Dates":["[{\"date\":\"1983-02-28\",\"type\":\"Production Date\",\"notes\":\"\",\"source\":\"J-card\"}]"],"Location":["[{\"url\":\"https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/1852574\",\"venue\":\"\",\"notes\":\"\",\"address\":\"Vancouver, BC, Canada\",\"latitude\":\" 49.2530\",\"longitude\":\"-123.1128\"}]"],"Address":["Vancouver, BC, Canada"],"City":["Vancouver, British Columbia"],"Note":["[{\"note\":\"Side one and the first 32 minutes of the second side are duplicate.
