Mark Pomeroy LHS Class of 1987, lives with his family in Portland, Oregon, where he was born and raised. In 2014, Oregon State University Press published his first novel, The Brightwood Stillness, which The Oregonian called “absorbing and humane.” He has received an Oregon Literary Fellowship for fiction, and his short stories, poems, and essays have appeared in Open Spaces, Portland Magazine, The Wordstock 10, NW Book Lovers, The Oregonian, and What Teaching Means: Stories from America’s Classrooms. For the past thirty years he has led creative writing workshops in Portland schools. In 2024, University of Iowa Press published his second novel, The Tigers of Lents, which won an Independent Publisher Book Award and was a finalist for the National Indie Excellence Award for Literary Fiction. The Tigers of Lents is a rich exploration of class, neighborhood and, especially, the bonds—frayed, inescapable—of a family through time. Traveling with the Garrison sisters is an emotionally fraught and rewarding experience, deepened by detailed evocation of place and time, as well as a soundtrack that ranges from the Pet Shop Boys to Ratt to Jelly Roll Morton. I believe in these people. I worry about and hope for them. - Peter Rock, author of My Abandonment There is much that shimmers in The Tigers of Lents. Pomeroy's book is an immersive read -- the intertwined lives, the overarching message of hope. Nobody is perfect, nothing is perfect. This is one of those books that helps explain why. - Fran Gardner, Oregon ArtsWatch (Read the full article) The story honors the dignity and decency of these girls without romanticizing them. Pomeroy understands the endless pull of family when you begin to break away, and the gravity of both chaos and chance … I don’t remember when I last read a book that so captures the rhythm of this city. How the neighborhoods connect. Where the traffic flows and the shadows fall. - Steve Duin, The Oregonian (Read the full article) |

This year’s “Cornlandia” corn maze theme is a “tribute to a wild harvest, nature, nostalgia, and Northwest pride,” featuring a salmon, an elk, and a beaver frolicking in the mountain sunshine. Even trying to complete this year’s maze via top view is challenging, so don’t get too lost! Or do? I guess that’s the point? An absolute must for autumn activities, Sauvie Island’s Pumpkin Patch hosts a produce market, a barn full of farm animals, and u-pick berries (and pumpkins of course). | Aladdin Theater 3017 SE Milwaukie Avenue |
Whether you grew up in the '80s or you just have a major appreciation for the big hair, massive egos, and unbelievable guitar solos of the era, Rock of Ages is here to crank the nostalgia dial all the way to 11. This Tony-nominated Broadway smash first premiered in 2005, and Stumptown Stages is celebrating its 20th anniversary with a 15-show run. With a cast that’s sure to be as loud and over-the-top as the music itself, THIS IS A HIT! |

Hello Lincoln Alumni! I am excited to reach out to you regarding 2 exchange students that I am helping to find host families for - they will arrive in late January and return home in June. These amazing students speak English, have their own health insurance, and will cover all their personal expenses. A volunteer host family simply welcomes them as part of their family for the 5-month stay! A host family can be someone with or without kids, married, single, retired, etc. Although our students don't arrive until January, I am securing their school spots this month. Please contact me for information on the students, any questions you may have, or if you or someone you know would love to host one of the Italian exchange students for the second high school semester at Lincoln High School in 2026!
