The Hannah Kahn Poetry FoundationThe Hannah Kahn Poetry Foundation was founded in her honor with its charter to "bring poetry events to South Florida." Hannah had been successful in bringing national poets, such as Anthony Hecht, Gwendolyn Brooks, Yehuda Amichai, Dana Gioia, Maxine Kumin, John Haag, Carolyn Kizer and others to read and lecture in South Florida, and the foundation continues that effort.[1] Hannah Kahn Poetry AwardThe Hannah Kahn Poetry Award is presented through the Florida State Poetry Association.[2] ArchivesA collection of transcripts of poetry readings by Hannah Kahn is located at the George A. Smathers Libraries Special Collection archives of the University of Florida.[3] Her papers, including correspondence with Conrad Aiken, Pearl S. Buck, Marjory Stoneman Douglas, and others, are located in the archives of the University of Florida.[4] Personal notesHannah quit school at the age of 16 and worked menial jobs in New York City before going on to obtain her GED and college education. She then obtained entry level work at a furniture manufacturer and eventually became showroom manager for the business until her retirement. Hannah's poetry was influenced and inspired by the memory of her husband Frank who died early in life. They had three children, two boys and a daughter Vivian, and eventually five grandchildren. Her daughter Vivian was handicapped with Down syndrome and lived with Hannah until Hannah's death, and Hannah dedicated much of her effort in the Miami area supporting the handicapped, including her association with the Association for Retarded Citizens (ARC).[5] See also{{portal|Poetry}}
