    Extractions: Marilyn Nelson has published six books of poetry, the most recent of which are The Fields of Praise: New and Selected Poems and Carver: A Life in Poems . Her honors include two Pushcart Prizes, two creative writing fellowships from the NEA, the 1990 Connecticut Arts Award, and others. The Fields of Praise won the 1998 Poets' Prize and was a finalist for the 1997 National Book Award, the PEN Winship Award, and the Lenore Marshall Prize. Carver won the 2001 Boston Globe/Hornbook Award, was a finalist for the 2001 National Book Award, and was named a Newbery Honor Book and a Coretta Scott King Honor Book. Nelson, a professor of English at the University of Connecticut, Storrs, holds an MA from the University of Pennsylvania and a PhD from the University of Minnesota. Appointment: 2001, five-year term Next poet laureate Previous poet laureate The position doesn't come with a job title. But I'm trying to find creative and unique ways of getting people involved in poetry and making it more available to them. One unique situation involved auctioning off my services to write poems as part of a poetry reading service. My service was auctioned off to a couple in Boston who wanted a wedding poem written for their daughter as a surprise to read at her upcoming wedding. It's been a very rewarding experience. I'm also working on creating some kind of program for middle school children, and the possibility of placing poetry in doctors' and dentists' waiting rooms across the state.

    Extractions: The poetry in  Marilyn Nelson's 1997 National Book Award Finalist collection of new and selected poems, The Fields of Praise (Louisiana State Press, $16.95) varies richly in both subject matter and technique. In section I, "Mama and Daddy," Nelson recounts in conversational poems, poignant, engaging stories of her parents and what they gave her. Her father "was a navigator on B-52s. His crew was a lot like the crew of the bomber in Dr. Strangelove (1964) in which James Earl Jones plays the part of the navigator." she writes in the notes on the poems. The Tuskegee Airmen poems, she says, are true: "These men,/these proud black men;/our first to touch/their fingers to the sky." Except for their short lines, many of the poems in this section read like prose. The riveting stories contain racial tensions of WWII - harsh, blatant prejudices to be confronted.

    Extractions: Sixty-five years after Curt Carlson's Gold Bond Stamp Co. began building ongoing relationships with consumers, his daughter and heir at Carlson Companies Inc. says the most successful marketers are those who realize the value of establishing a connection with customers. Marilyn Carlson Nelson, CEO of Carlson Cos., told an audience of about 400 attending a Carlson School of Management's First Tuesday luncheon that the rise of marketing and consumer research has had made it more possible than ever to know customers' preferences. The most savvy businesses are those using that information to boost their "customer share" the value of goods and services they sell to each consumer.

    Extractions: This serigraph comes from one of 26 editions of the US Naval Signal Flag Narratives series. These prints reveal memories from childhood of growing up within the culture of the Navy. These memories are not only personal, but are shared by many of the millions of children who grew up within service-families. The military constitutes a separate and distinctly different subculture from civilian America. It exercises a powerful shaping influence on the children of its personnel requiring a lifestyle that is unique, intense, demanding, and dominated by rules and values.

    Extractions: Return to main story When MARILYN CARLSON NELSON, CEO of Carlson Cos., took over the family business last March, she inherited an empire that had been ruled by her demanding and domineering father for six decades. Curtis Carlson, who still has 100% voting control of the company, hasn't always agreed with her point of view, but this year Nelson has used a mixture of brains and charm to keep dad satisfied and make the corner office her own. Under Nelson, 58, Minneapolis-based Carlson has launched a series of acquisitions and joint ventures, increasing the company's worldwide travel-agency business by 200%. And Nelson, who has overseen corporate expansion since 1996, has built a remarkably loyal employee base at the privately owned $7 billion company. A dynamic and inspirational speaker, she has liberalized benefits, instituted day-care and profit-sharing plans, sometimes over her father's objections, and brought in important managers from outside the company. Nelson's biggest coup this year was merging with Britian's Thomas Cook Group, and combining with its 450 travel offices in the United Kingdom and its small British airline. A French speaker who studied at the Sorbonne, in Paris, Nelson has easily expanded operations in Europe. But her empire-building hasn't stopped there. She's commissioning luxury cruise ships and expanding the company's hotel franchises, including its Radisson Hotels. She's also trying to prepare son Curtis Nelson to take over the company someday.

    http://www.bc.edu/schools/csom/cga/executives/events/carlson/
    
    Extractions: The nation's travel industry has reacted to a drop in corporate and leisure travel by aggressively cutting costs, the chief executive of one of the world's largest hotel operators said Boston College's Chief Executives Club. The privately held Carlson Companiess operates hotels, resorts and restaurants under the Radisson, Regent, Park Plaza and T.G.I Friday's flags in 140 countries. Its units employ about 190,000 people, including about 10,000 in Massachusetts, and boast sales totaling $ 19 billion. She said Carlson Cos. and the travel industry have reacted to big drops in both leisure and corporate travel by slashing costs. "We are just intensely focusing on this as a matter of short-term survival," she said. "We have to get costs down. We're taking very dramatic costs out." She said if travel stops in the event of war, the industry should look at it as a "hiatus" - a time to reinvest and implement more efficient operations. "We have to get through that, and not everyone will," she said. Nelson said some travel units within her company are being called on by travelers to find safer destinations and make travel easier.
