Celebrating a decade since its first Poets and Dreamers publication, and over two decades since its founding, Poets and Dreamers International presents Poets and Dreamers: Culture, Art, and Conversation by Anne Tammel. In conversation with creative visionaries and strategic thought leaders, inventors, and artists who challenge, inspire, and reshape our collective mindset, Anne Tammel explores how jazz bands form the best models for collaborative teams, cooking with passion unites regions, AI restores botanical gardens, human speech begins as music, and peak performance starts with gratitude. Founded in 2001 after executive editor Anne Tammel returned from a transformative journey through the Mediterranean, what began as a series of literary salons, strategy sessions, garden dinners, workshops, and live performances evolved into Poets and Dreamers-a global circle of visionary leaders, inventors, artists, and designers who believe that words, art, music, and conversation act as a transcendent bridge to transform life as we know it. From organic orchards of San Jose to early Silicon Valley with Steve Jobs, the hidden cafés and studios of Paris, design houses of New York, boardrooms of top executives, backstage at Led Zeppelin concerts to the shores of Amalfi, into the private kitchens of legendary chefs and through the garage workshops of inventors, this collection creates a space for literary, culinary, technical, and visual integration. The term Poets and Dreamers was first introduced by Lady Gregory in 1903 with her collection Poets and Dreamers: Studies and Translations from the Irish, as she brought together daring, imaginative voices to explore themes like shadow-heroes, herb healing, and life on the "edge of the world." Poets and Dreamers carries forward that legacy-expanding its reach across literature, fine arts, cuisine, and global culture. Open this book and join the Poets and the Dreamers.
