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":["Lola Lemire Tostevin's poetry reading and interview with Warren Tallman at York University on February 27, 1992 Part 2 of 2"],"item_title_source":["J-card and Recording"],"item_language":["English"],"item_production_context":["Classroom recording"],"item_identifiers":["[]"],"rights":["Copyright Not Evaluated (CNE)"],"creator_names":["Tallman, Warren","Tostevin, Lola Lemire","Derrida, Jacques"],"creator_names_search":["Tallman, Warren","Tostevin, Lola Lemire","Derrida, Jacques"],"creators":["[{\"url\":\"http://viaf.org/viaf/11397708\",\"name\":\"Tallman, Warren\",\"dates\":\"1921-1994\",\"notes\":\"He seems to be the facilitator of the event; He has a conversation with Lola Lemire Tostevin \",\"nation\":[],\"role\":[\"Speaker\"]},{\"url\":\"http://viaf.org/viaf/8771515\",\"name\":\"Tostevin, Lola Lemire\",\"dates\":\"1937-\",\"notes\":\"\",\"nation\":[],\"role\":[\"Speaker\"]},{\"url\":\"http://viaf.org/viaf/88958529\",\"name\":\"Derrida, Jacques\",\"dates\":\"1930-2004\",\"notes\":\"Lola Lemire Tostevin talks a lot about this author on the first side.
