Poets and Dreamers: Culture, Art, and Conversation

In conversation with inventors, artists, business leaders, and strategists, 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.

From the organic orchards of San Jose and early Silicon Valley with Steve Jobs, to the design houses of New York, hidden studios of Paris, and boardrooms of top executives; from the Riot House with Led Zeppelin to the shores of Cyprus and Amalfi, then into the private kitchens of legendary chefs-this collection creates a space for literary, visual, technical, and culinary integration.

Celebrating a century of cultural and literary tradition, 25 years since its founding, and a decade since Poets and Dreamers first publication, Poets and Dreamers International introduces Poets and Dreamers: Culture, Art, and Conversation by Anne Tammel.

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, workshops, and performance art became Poets and Dreamers--a global circle of visionary leaders, inventors, designers, and artists who believe words, art, and music act as a transcendent bridge.

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 by Anne Tammel 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.
