Scope and content
Professor Hentz developed a collection of poems about art and slides of the art reflected in the poems. In the 1980s she tried to publihs a couple versions of her work, but found that permissions fees for the poetry and the art made this financially prohibitive for her and for her potential publishers. In the internet era it may be possible to find art on the web, for personal viewing, but the poetry still is shrouded under copyright even many decades after it is written and published, and even long after t he poet has died. But her colection is available here for research in person. .
