Memorial Service
On Friday, 13th November 1953, four days after Dylan Thomas had
died, around four hundred people attended a memorial service for the
poet here in the third oldest church in New York. Hiswife. CaitlinThomas,
along with other chief mourners, was at the front of the church.
The gathering included poet e.e. cummings and sculptor David Slivka.
It was also the day when a grieving Caitlin accompanied the
coffined body of her husband, aboard the SSUnited States,on the long
and lonely journey back to Britain.
His early and unexpected death was a great shock on both sides
of the Atlantic. Leading British newspapers, such as the Daily Mail
and the Daily Express, acknowledged his genius and his colourful
poet's lifestyle. The British poet Philip Larkin said. "I can't believe
that DT is truly dead. Three people who've altered the face of poetry
and the youngest has to die." The other two poets were Auden and
Eliot. Vernon Watkins, a close friend of Dylan and Larkin, was, in fact,
asked to writean obituary before Dylan was actually dead.
Interestingly, one of the founding wardens of St. Luke's was
Clement Clarke Moore, the author of the world-renowned poem
'Twas the night before Christmas. He donated the land on which
the church was built. Dylan Thomas, of course, wrote the very
popular A Child's Christmas in Wales.
Dylan's Readings
The poet and playwright Edna St. Vincent Millay founded Cherry
Lane Theatre, which was originally Cherry Lane Playhouse, in 1924.
As New York's oldest off Broadway Theatre, it has been at the
In 1952, on his second visit, Dylan did a special reading for the
artistic community. Tickets were only $1 a head and Thomas had
promised to read only his own poems. However, the show was nearly
cancelled when he arrived claiming to have lost his copy of his poems.
Judith Malina came to the rescue with a replacement that Dylan later
returned, complete with the hand-written bookmarks he had used for
the performance.
There is also another possible link between Edna St. Vincent Millay
and Dylan. Millay, who was born in 1892 and died in 1951, wrote a

The brook still flows underground.
The old wood panelling and time-honoured candelabra, which are
still part of the attraction for today's customers, appealed to decades
of poets and writers, including Ernest Hemingway, Ezra Pound. Eugene
O'Neill, e.e. cummings and Dylan Thomas.
The black-and-white ink caricature drawings and aged photos,
now yellowing, and the murals are testimony to its Bohemian days
when celebrities sought out its convivial cosiness.
Dylan became a good friend of Joe Gould, who was known as
"Professor Seagull." A Harvard graduate, Gould claimed to understand
the language of sea gulls and wrote several thousand pages of his
imaginary great work.An Oral History of OurTime.
It has been claimed that Reader's Digest originated in the
basement of the property in 1923. More recently the Minetta was
featured in the film Jimmy Blue Eyes, which is about the New York
mobster Vincent "Jimmy Blue Eyes" Alo (1904-2001).

It was David who made Dylan's death mask. The original mask is in
an upstairs bedroom of the Boat House in Laugharne, Wales. The mask
used to belong to Richard Burton and ElizabethTaylor until it was sold
after Burton's death. The last bust cast from the mask is in the Dylan

is more complex.
When he arrived in New York on Monday. 19th October 1953, for
his fourth tour, he was already desperately ill. Yet he still seemed to
have no desire to curtail his drinking or smoking. There is evidence that
he was becoming increasingly dependent on medication. He was also
suffering blackouts, and his behaviour, at times, was erratic.
On Tuesday, 3rd November, he started weeping in his bedroom at
the Chelsea. He told Liz Reitell that he wanted to die and "go to the
garden of Eden." At two o'clock in the morning he told her he had to

Dylan Thomas is often thought of as the "first rock 'n' roll poet":

audiences at his readings, and often got accosted when he appeared

Dylan died at lunchtime on 9th November 1953, while a nurse was
giving him a bed bath. Poet John Berryman was the only other person
present. To this day there is a controversy over what actually caused

Debunking myths about Dylan Thomas in an official walking tour of New York's historic Greenwich Village.
Dylan Thomas was greeted like a rock star when he crossed America to give his legendary readings to huge audiences. In
Greenwich Village, he was able to enjoy literary and musical pursuits in more relaxed and less public way. The architecture
and atmosphere appealed to him. He wrote to his parents saying that he found Washington Square Park, ' very beautiful.'
St tuke in the Fields inspired Dylan's "Child's Christmas in Wales,"he went to visit his pal ee cummings in Patchin Place,
and ate his first meal in America (which he said was as big as a month's ration for a British family).
The two hour tour was created in association with Aeronnwy Thomas, Dylan's daughter who was able to 'trial' the tour just
before she died. The tour guide is Ianto Roberts whose voice has an uncanny similarity to Dylan's. He weaves tales about
the extrovert bohemian artists of 1950's Greenwich Village in with stories about Thomas' life and death in New York.
This is the Official Dylan Thomas Walking Tour of New York,a collaboration of the Welsh Government in New York and the
The first tour is Sunday March 6th 2011 at 11am. $25.00 per ticket. And every Sunday after that. Bookings and further

The Dvlan Thomas Walking Tour of Greenwich Village was developed by the Welsh Assembly Government in New York in
association with Aeronwy Thomas, Peter Thabit Jones, Jane O'Brien, John Pierce Jones, Huw Chiswell, Todd tefkovic and
others. The Welsh Government would like to thank all those involved for their assistance with the project and we wish New

LAUGHARNE, Wales In his short life, Dylan Thomas became one of the world's first
multimedia superstars through his spellbinding poetry, stage readings and dramatic writing for
the stage, screen, radio and television.
Just 39 when he died in November 1953, Thomas also was an inspiration for a generation of
younger artists, ineluding Bob Dylan and John Lennon. Followinghis passing, countless girls were
named in honor of his widow, Caitlin. His poetry, stories such as "A Child's Christmas in Wales"
and the play "Under Milk Wood" remain central to the Welsh literary canon.
This year, the centenary of his birth, offers a perfect opportunity to take a hike along the Dylan
Thomas trail. There is no better place to start this Welsh eoastal journey than Browns Hotel, the
Laugharne public house where he did some of his best work.
You never know who might join you for the Dylan Thomas 100 Festival. As I was leaving Browns,
the owner suggested delaying my departure and joining the small crowd gathered outside. An
hour later Prince Charles and the Duchess of Windsor greeted our group and made an
unannounced visit to this literary shrine, just a short walk from the idyllic boathouse where
Thomas lived with Caitlin and their children.
If you go
The Welsh like to joke about the fact that
it costs $10 in bridge tolls to enter their
land, but there's no charge to leave.
Well worth the tariff, a visit to Dylan
Thomas Centennial (www.dt100.info)
begins with a trip to Swansea (three
hours west of London) and the Dylan
Thomas Centre. Although centennial
events are being staged in many Welsh
and UKvenues, this is a great place to
start your journey, you can pick up maps
and a picturesque set of walking
guides.

centenary or vLsitwales.com.
This reading, his last UK performance before his fatal journey to America, is just one more
landmark on the Thomas trail, which also includes the Dylan Thomas Centre in Swansea, his
hometown.
The hub of the Dylan Thomas 100 Festival Program, this collection is a literary landmark that
offers a chance to see the writer's notebooks, hear readings of his poetry and join events featuring
some of Wales' best known writers. Because Thomas was a close friend of leading novelists,
playwrights and poets on both sides of the Atlantic, the museum provides a panoramic view of the
mid-20th-centuiy literary canon.
"One of the mast beguiling things about Dylan's social character," wrote his friend, agent and
biographer John Malcolm Brinnin, "was the spell-like illusion of intimacy he would cast upon
anyone who came near. Everyone, it seemed, could command his intimate attention."
This intimacy, which extends to today's audiences, goes far beyond readings of his poetry at
funerals everywhere. Perhaps the most intriguing aspect of a Dvlan Thomas walking tour is the
relationship between his work and village life. As often as he visited world capitals tor his
legendary command performances and partying, Thomas traveled under a cloud of nostalgia for
his native land.
To see why, visit Swansea's Cwmdonkin Park, where Thomas -- as he described it in his radio
broadcast, "Reminiscences of Childhood" "endured with pleasure, the first agonies of
unrequited love, the first slow boiling in the belly of a bad poem and the struggling and ravenlocked self-dramatization of what, at that time, seemed incurable adolescence."
Although the Dylan Thomas trail is only a small portion of the 870-mile-long Wales Coast Path, it
provides an intimate look at the literary life of an inspiring writer. His early departure from his
celebrated literary life remains the central mystery of life. Walking the Welsh paths he loved
makes one consider the great poems he might have written into his 40s and beyond.

For such a multimedia star, there are no moving images Of Thomas, just a silent newsreel of his funeral
procession in Laugharne. But his recordings continueto be money-spinnersfor his estate.
The Thomas Centre will be the headquarters for the special 2014 Dylan Thomas Festival, lasting from
his birthday Oct. 17 to Nov.9, the anniversary of his death.
Nearby, the Swansea City Centre Trail traces Thomas' life along the old landmarksand pubs he knew.
One of the stops is The Uplands Hotel, nowthe Uplands Tavern, where he first tasted beet: "Itslive White

and a year later moved to Laugharne. about 30 milesnorthwest of Swansea, to make a home forfheir
children, Aeronwy, Llewellyn and Colm.
Laugharne, on a nook of the RiverTaf, is an ancient, oliffside settlement with a 13th-century fortress, ft
has a venerable literary past, too. Feminist philosopher MaryWollstonecraft lived in Laugharne, and her
daughter Mary Shelley, author of Frankehstein. often visited. Novelist Kingsley Amis wrote during stays
in the town, and Margaret Atwood set a short story in Laugharne.
Thomas called it simply "the strangest town in Wales."
The family moved around a bit in the villageof 400, always coveting the Boathouse perched on rocks on
the "heron prlested" Taf Estuary. The waves sometimes swept into the lower rooms, and there was no

four years of his life, from 1949 to 1953.
Step inside and you'll hear Thomas, maybe his broadcast of Qt//fe Early One Morning. Much of the
furniture is original, and the tiny rooms have a lived-in feel.
Just 50 yards away, Thomas took an old garage as his Writing Shed. Here, on stilts above the cliffs, he
practiced his "sullen craft,"writing Under Milk Wood, Do Not Go Gentle Into Thai Good Night and Poem

Most of Thomas' ramblings ended at Browns Hotel in Laugharne, where he would commandeer the bay

Something of a workaholic who rewrote his poems hundreds of times inthe small writing
shed above his residence, Thomas also was the life ofthe party on his legendary tours at
home and across America. A series of multimedia Laugharne weekends this summer are
offered as "less a DylanThomas festival than the kind of festival Dylanwould have liked to
go to," according to the DylanThomas Centennial program published by the sponsors of
the Dylan Thomas 100 program.

The hub ofthe Dylan Thomas 100 Festival Program, the Dylan Thomas Centre in
Swansea, his hometown, is a literary landmark that offers a chance to see the writer's
notebooks, hear readings of his own poetry and join events featuring some of Wales' best
known writers. Because Thomas was a close friend of leading novelists, playwrights and
poets on both sides ofthe Atlantic, the museum provides a panoramic view ofthe mid20th century literary canon.
IN MY SHOES
"One ofthe most beguiling things about Dylan's social character," wrote his friend, agent
and biographer John Malcolm Brinnin,"was the spell-like illusionof intimacy he would cast
upon anyone who came near."
This intimacy, which extends to today's audiences, goes far beyond readings of his poetry
at funerals everywhere. Perhaps the most intriguing aspect of a Dylan Thomas walking
tour is the relationship between his work and village life. As often as he visited world
capitals for his legendary performances and partying, Thomas traveled under a cloud of
nostalgia for his native land.
To see why, visit Swansea's Cwmdonkin Park, where Thomas as he described in his
radio broadcast, "Reminiscences of Childhood" "endured with pleasure, the first
agonies of unrequited love, the first slow boiling in the belly of a bad poem and the
struggling and raven-locked self-dramatization of what, at that time, seemed incurable

adolescence."
Although the Dylan Thomas trail is only a small portion ofthe 870-mile-long Wales Coast
Path, it provides an intimate look at the literary life of an inspiring writer. His early
departure from his celebrated literary life remains the central mystery of life. Walking the
Welsh paths he loved makes one consider the great poems he might have written into his
40s and beyond.

Hip-hop, Dylan Thomas and Wales
By Kevin Powell
I have been in love with and a participant in hip-hop culture since I was 13. Coming of age in the New York City metro area, the birthplace
of hip-hop, is the reason why, no question. Working-class Black and Latino youth created this music, this energy, and we really had no idea
how much it would affect the entire planet.
?,
Early on I tagged graffiti with magic markers wherever I could, and danced to hip-hop at every kind of
party imaginable. Somewhere between my college years and the mass explosion of hip-hop in the early
1990s I started writing poetry and joined the hip-hop-inspired spoken word movement happening in New
York. Then when music legend Quincy Jones launched Vibe magazine, to document hip-hop from all
angles, I was very fortunate to get on board as one of the staff writers. I interviewed major rap stars of
the era, including the late Tupac Shakur on several occasions. Years after I would produce the very first
exhibit on hip-hop culture in America, via the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Beyond all of this I have lectured about hip-hop culture, and the differences between the culture and what
v/wi*
I call "the hip-hop industry," across the United States and globally. I have been blown away time again
how hip-hop is the dominant youth culture on the planet. Even in Wales, the United Kingdom, where I
recently spent significant time there is no greater evidence of this than a local organization based in
Cardiff, the Welsh capital, called Grassroots Cardiff: http://www.grassrootscardiff.com/ P
I was invited to Grassroots to speak to its youth, who range in age from 16-25 and are all working-class, just as
the famous Welsh coal miners of generations past. Where those miners formed all-male choirs to give voice to their
passions today the Welsh young people of today have hip-hop. Grassroots Cardiff is a combination multimedia space,
self-help center, and safe space for these young people. Three of them performed raps for their peers and myself
and I felt as if I were back somewhere in the U.S.: they wore the "uniforms" of American hip-hop, the baseball
caps, the tee shirts or hoodies, the work boots or sneakers (what they call "daps") in Wales; they had the
mannerisms of hip-hop down as if they had created it in Wales, not Black and Latino youth in New York City; and
they rapped about their Wales, about their hopes, fears, sorrows, and dreams.
This was hip-hop at its finally, fully loaded from Wales. I took to a microphone to speak with these youth and
discussed my main reason for being in Wales: the nation's greatest writer ever, Dylan Thomas. Some youth knew of
Dylan Thomas and some did not. It did not matter. I shared with them Thomas' short 39-year life and his great
impact, from his roots in Wales, on African American writers like myself. The Grassroots young people were very
surprised, and I can see a feel of pride swell in the room. For here they were, Welsh young people inspired by an
African American art form called hip-hop, yet I, a Black man from America, was telling them that an artist from Wales had affected me
greatly.
This is one of the great wonders of Wales, especially given that it has had multi-ethnic communities for
centuries, including the first such neighborhood of its kind, Tiger Bay, right here in Cardiff. So there is an
openness and a crossing of many cultural boundaries here in Wales passed from generation to generation,
from African American artist and humanitarian Paul Robeson working with Welsh coal miners in the 1920s
and 1930s, to African American me, writer, activist, hip-hop historian, bonding with these Welsh hiphoppers in the 21st century.
Part of the bond, for sure, is the mutual love and appreciation of music that the Welsh and Black
Americans share. Coal miners came together to form all-male singing choirs as a way to express
themselves freely, in their own language, on their own terms. Similarly hip-hop is a mostly all-male
created art form, created by working-class people just as those Welsh coal miners were, as a way to
speak for themselves, to make something magical seemingly from nothing. I highly recommend to any
African American who visits Wales to not only tour the coal mines, and to spend some time listening to
one of the all-male choirs that still exist, but to also stop by places like Grassroots Cardiff.

I was able to visit each of these things and it all deepened not only my appreciation for the people and culture of Wales, but also for my
own roots as an African American, and how much my culture means to the world.
