    Robinson Jeffers project anyone?

    Has anyone heard of the Robinson Jeffers (1887-1962) Visual Arts Project? I think it is an activity originating from Cal State U., Long Beach and (I think) a collection of photos taken by Robinson Jeffers, the Carmel ,CA poet who wrote the poem Mal Paso Creek (one of my favorties, along with Walter De La Mare's The Listeners and John McCrae's In Flanders Field) I know Jeffer's swarthy portrait was done by Edward Weston, but I didn't know that Jeffers was a 'tog. Does anyone here know anything about his photography?

    Cheers!

    BTW I did learn that Jeffers wrote the prose for the Sierra Club book No Man Apart Photographs of Big Sur
