    Podcast Episode 226: MAGGI KERR PEIRCE
    Jan 13 2026
    Welcome to our first post-holiday post since mid-December. Here is our first-ever, back-to-back twin episode post featuring The Artists Index podcast host Scott Bishop's conversations with Maggi Kerr Peirce, the author of A Belfast Girl. HERE IS PART TWO: According to the Parkhurst Brothers Publishing website, she "...sang her native Irish ballads from the Newport Folk Festival to Puget Sound during the 1970s. She performed on many of the same stages as Pete Seeger, the Kingston Trio, and Peter, Paul, and Mary." She graced storytelling festivals from coast-to-coast with her Irish stories. The revered storyteller, a founder of the Tryworks Coffeehouse, a legendary and long-running (1967-2002) folk music and arts venue in New Bedford, Massachusetts, held at the First Unitarian Church. It was a vibrant community hub for the musicians, poets, and young people of the South Coast. Maggi has been featured at the National Storytelling Festival and received the National Storytelling Network (USA) Oracle Award for lifetime achievement. Scott Bishop spoke with her at her home in Fairhaven, Massachusetts. Maggi Peirce was 93 at the time of her passing in December 2024. She shared just some of her many memories, as well as her love of the Tryworks Coffeehouse, the South Coast, and so much more.

    Podcast Episode 224: COLIN WILLIAMS
    Dec 12 2025
    Welcome, Colin Williams, whose fascination with the use of language began with a grandfather from down Downeast Maine, at a university way down south, and with work in international commerce. It all inspired a poetic and lyrical volume of work. After several years of sea duty in the Navy during the Vietnam War, his matriculation at SMU (Southeastern Massachusetts University) was a welcome home flavored by the delight of the University's Paul Rudolph architecture. His tenure there included the co-chairmanship of the SMU Concert Series, which included finding art majors to design handbills, posters, tickets, and backstage passes. He directed concerts in the auditorium, the big parties in the campus center, and the 3000-seat gymnasium. These events were a 4-year experience. Colin said, "Having lived at several coastal addresses near the South Coast, the change to our urban environment was in part inspired by knowing that the Swain School of Design flavoured the neighbourhood." It was all a part, he believes, of the intersections of SMTI, SMU, and the Swain School of Design. After moving to New Bedford, the city became a village for him. Along with historic and maritime presence, a culture of musicians and artists, where "the embracing behaviour of many talents continued to be characterized by expressive and collaborative instincts." Colin Williams spoke with The Artists Index Cofounder & Podcaster Ron Fortier shared his memories of the halcyon days of SMU, as well as his love of the South Coast, and so much more. Colin F. Williams Dartmouth, Massachusetts 02748 Email | Website | Facebook | Instagram | YouTube NOTE: A selection of Colin's poems is in the image gallery. Colin will also introduce Scott Bishop's two podcast conversations with folk music legend, Maggi Peirce, in our next two post-holiday episodes.
