FACTUAL ALLEGATIONS
30. In March of 2012, Plaintiff discovered that the Welsh Government, acting through
Visit Wales, was using Plaintiffs Just Married photo without permission. Through Visit Wales,
the Plaintiff advised the Welsh Government that it owned copyright in the photo and promptly
demanded in writing that the Welsh Government cease and desist using Plaintiffs Just Married
photo.
31. On or about March 30, 2012, a representative of the Welsh Government
acknowledged Plaintiffs notice of copyright and claimed that the Welsh Government would
comply with Plaintiffs demand that Defendant cease and desist use of the photo.
32. Despite acknowledging Plaintiffs 2012 copyright notice and takedown demand,
the Welsh Government subsequently began new unauthorized uses of Plaintiffs Just Married
photo.
33. Beginning in 2014, the Welsh Government began using unauthorized copies of
Plaintiffs Just Married photo in advertisements, promotions, brochures, and other tourism-
related materials, including materials directed specifically at residents of New York and intended
to lure American tourists to Wales.
34. Attached hereto as Exhibits 1 and 2 are true and correct copies of examples of
publications and tourism materials published by the Welsh Government that feature unauthorized
and infringing copies of Plaintiff s JustMarried photo.
35. Because information regarding the scope of Defendant's use of Plaintiffs
photographs remains in Defendant's sole possession, the full and complete scope of Defendant's
infringing uses of Plaintiff s Just Marriedwork has not yet been ascertained.
36. In addition to making new unauthorized uses of Plaintiffs Just Married photo,
Defendant also created or acquired an unauthorized derivative copy of Plaintiff s Just Married
photo that it subsequently displayed, published, sold, and otherwise used without permission
from Plaintiff and despite knowing that Plaintiff claimed copyright in the underlying
photographic work.
37. Attached hereto as Exhibit 3 is a true and correct uncropped copy of the
unauthorized derivative work created or acquired by Defendant. Exhibit 3 is a photograph, taken
from Defendant's website, of an old print of Plaintiffs Just Married photo that was being
displayed at the time on the mantle of a fireplace at the Birthplace of Dylan Thomas.
38. Despite previously acknowledging Plaintiffs copyright notice, the Welsh
Government published, displayed, and offered for sale the unauthorized derivative of Plaintiff s
Just Married original work.
39. Attached hereto as Exhibit 4 is a true and correct copy of a screen capture from
the website www.walesonview.com. which is owned and/or operated bythe Welsh Government,
showing the unauthorized derivative copy being offered for sale as image "SVW-C53-1213-
0171.JPG."
40. The Welsh Government also provided this unauthorized derivative copy of
Plaintiffs Just Married photo to the other Publisher Defendants (as well as to other, yet-to-be-
ascertained third parties) to use to promote Wales tourism and the Visit Wales campaign here in
the United States.
41. The Welsh Government also used Plaintiffs Penard photo as part of its
advertising, tourism, and promotional campaign.
42. Because information regarding the scope of the Publisher Defendants' use of this
unauthorized derivative copy of Plaintiff s photograph remains in the Publisher Defendants' sole
possession, the full and complete scope of Defendants' infringing uses of the unauthorized
derivative has not yet been ascertained.
43. Attached hereto as Exhibits 5-12 are true and correct copies of various
publications and other documents showing that the Publisher Defendants published and
displayed unlicensed copies of Plaintiffs photos or unauthorized derivatives of Plaintiffs
copyrighted work.
44. Because information regarding the scope of Defendant's use of Plaintiffs Penard
photograph remains in Defendant's sole possession, the full and complete scope of Defendant's
infringing uses of Plaintiff s Penard'work has not yet been ascertained.
COUNT I
COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT AGAINST ALL DEFENDANTS

otherwise exploited Plaintiffs copyrighted works without a license and without permission.

license to use either theJust Married or Penard photos, particularly to promote tourism or in its
advertising campaigns.

license, Plaintiff alleges that Defendant exceeded the scope of any alleged license.
51. Regardless of whether the Welsh Government ever had any permission to use the
photos—which Plaintiff contends it did not—Plaintiffs March 2012 correspondence provided
sufficient notice to the Welsh Government that any purported license had been rescinded or
revoked and that no additional uses of the photo were permitted.
52. By infringing Plaintiffs copyrights, Defendants misappropriated Plaintiffs
intellectual property for their own profit, causing Plaintiff significant injuries, damages, and
losses in amounts to be determined at trial.
53. Defendants' unauthorized uses of Plaintiffs copyrighted images were knowing
and willful.

publications and third party access to the content of those websites and publications, including
copies of Plaintiff s works.
62. The Welsh Government had the ability to prevent the Publisher Defendants and
other third parties from copying Plaintiffs photos or unauthorized derivative copies that were in
the control and possession of the Welsh Government.
63. When the Publisher Defendants copied, displayed, published, or sold
unauthorized copies of Plaintiffs photos to promote Wales tourism they were acting at the
direction, behest, on behalf of, for, and/or under the control of the Welsh Government.
64. The Welsh Government obtained direct financial benefits from the infringements
of the Publisher Defendants, including the promotion of its tourism business and goals.
65. By copying, distributing, displaying, publishing, and otherwise exploiting
Plaintiffs copyrighted creative works, each of the defendants infringed Plaintiffs copyrights in
the creative works identified herein and caused Plaintiffs significant injuries, damages, and
losses in amounts to be determined at trial.

1. CHURCH OF ST. LUKES IN THE FIELD
EPISCOPALEAN CHURCH487 Hudson Street at the corner of Grove Street
"Though lovers be lost love shall not;And death shall have no dominion"
from And death shall have no dominion
Memorial Service
On Friday, 13th November 1953, four days after Dylan Thomas haddied, around four hundred people attended a memorial service for thepoet here in the third oldest church in New York. Hiswife. CaitlinThomas,along with other chief mourners, was at the front of the church.The gathering included poet e.e. cummings and sculptor David Slivka.
It was also the day when a grieving Caitlin accompanied thecoffined bodyof her husband, aboard the SSUnited States,on the longand lonely journey back to Britain.
Dylan was one of the most famous poets in the English-speakingworld; and his popular and electrifying tours had made him a muchloved celebrity in America. While touring, he had found himself inthe company of some of the Twentieth Century's cultural greats,including Charlie Chaplin, Greta Garbo, Marlene Dietrich, MarilynMonroe, Thomas Mann, Henry Miller and Max Ernst.
The sales of his books rivalled those of T.S. Eliot, Ezra Pound,W.H. Auden and John Betjeman. Dylan's Collected Poems, publishedon 10th November 1952. sold 30,000 hardback copies in Britainwithin a couple of years. The Collected Poems went on to be evenmore successful in America.
His early and unexpected death was a great shock on both sidesof the Atlantic. Leading British newspapers, such as the Daily Mailand the Daily Express, acknowledged his genius and his colourfulpoet's lifestyle. The British poet Philip Larkin said. "I can't believethat DT is truly dead.Three people who've altered the face of poetryand the youngest has to die." The other two poets were Auden andEliot. Vernon Watkins, a close friend of Dylan and Larkin, was, in fact,askedto writean obituary before Dylan wasactually dead.
Interestingly, one of the founding wardens of St. Luke's wasClement Clarke Moore, the author of the world-renowned poem'Twas the night before Christmas. He donated the land on whichthe church was built. Dylan Thomas, of course, wrote the verypopular A Child's Christmas in Wales.
2. CHUMLEY'S86 Bedford Street
(between Grove Street and Barrow Street)
"Dressed to die. the sensual strut begun"from Twenty-fouryears
Chumley's is an authentic speakeasy from the Prohibition era. Itspreviousnotoriety is confirmed by the fact that it still has no sign and.as well as its main entrance, it offers a "secret entrance" on 58 Barrow
Street, through the backyard called Pamela's Court. Chumley's is NewYork's second oldest literary bar (the White Horse Tavern is the first).
Its walls are covered with the framed pictures of its clientele oflegendary writers and samples of their book covers. Dylan Thomas isone of many honoured, along with other literary greats such as JohnSteinbeck, Ernest Hemingway and F. Scott Fitzgerald. The poet andplaywright Edna St. Vincent Millay lived upstairs for a while.

from /, in my intricate image
Dylan's ReadingsThe poet and playwright Edna St. Vincent Millay founded Cherry
Lane Theatre, which was originally Cherry Lane Playhouse, in 1924.As New York's oldest off Broadway Theatre, it has been at theforefront of providing innovative theatre for over eighty years.The Downtown Theatre movement.The Living Theatre,establishedbythe actress and political activist Judith Malina, and the Theatre of theAbsurd came out of the Playhouse.
It showcased the early plays of EdwardAlbeeand premiered SamuelBeckett's Waiting for Godot. Its list of renowned performers includesGene Hackman. Bob Dylan and, of course, Dylan Thomas. BarbraStreisand was once an usher there.
In 1952, on his second visit, Dylan did a special reading for theartistic community. Tickets were only $1 a head and Thomas hadpromised to read only his own poems. However, the show was nearlycancelled when he arrived claiming to have lost his copy of his poems.Judith Malina came to the rescue with a replacement that Dylan laterreturned, complete with the hand-written bookmarks he had used forthe performance.
There is also another possible link between Edna St. Vincent Millayand Dylan. Millay, who was born in 1892 and died in 1951, wrote apoem Dirgewithoutmusic. It has the following lines:
"Down, down, down into the darkness of the graveGently they go, the beautiful, the tender, the kind;
Quietly they go. the intelligent, the witty, the brave.I know. ButI do not approve. And I am not resigned."
It brings to mindThomas'sfamous villanelle Do not go gentle intothat good night, which was drafted in March 1951. Millay's poem,infact, appeared inTheNewPocketAnthology ofAmerican Verse, editedby Dylan's American friendOscar Williams, which contained some poemsby Dylan.
4. MINETTA TAVERN113 MacDougal Street (on the corner of MacDougal Streetand Minetta Lane)
"His drinking was not a means of denying or fleeing life...but of fiercely embracing it."
from Dylan Thomas inAmerica byJohnMalcomBrinnin
The Minetta Tavern, which was a speakeasy during Prohibition,was known as The Black Rabbit until 1929. The Minetta Brook, which
began on 23rd Street on its way to the Hudson, inspired its name.The brook still flows underground.
The old wood panelling and time-honoured candelabra, which arestill part of the attraction for today's customers, appealed to decadesof poets and writers, including Ernest Hemingway, Ezra Pound. EugeneO'Neill, e.e. cummings and DylanThomas.
The black-and-white ink caricature drawings and aged photos,now yellowing, and the murals are testimony to its Bohemian dayswhen celebrities sought out its convivial cosiness.
Dylan became a good friend of Joe Gould, who was known as"Professor Seagull." A Harvard graduate, Gould claimed to understandthe language of sea gulls and wrote several thousand pages of hisimaginary great work.An Oral History of OurTime.
It has been claimed that Reader's Digest originated in thebasement of the property in 1923. More recently the Minetta wasfeatured in the film Jimmy Blue Eyes, which is about the New Yorkmobster Vincent "Jimmy Blue Eyes" Alo (1904-2001).

6. THE DOVE (THE GRAND TICINO)228 Thomson Street
(between West 3rd Street and Bleecker Street)"Onceit was the colour of saying
Soaked my table..."from Once it was the colour of saying
Favourite Restaurants
The Grand Ticino. at the time one of the finest Italian restaurants in
Greenwich Village, is where Dylan is said to have experienced his firstmeal in America. John Malcolm Brinnin, the organizer of Dylan's toursof the USA, took him there on his second day in New York, after theyhad been on a whistle-stop sightseeing tour of the city.
Dylan spent time at the Ticino with British poet Ruthven Todd andNew Zealand poet Allen Curnow.The white-table-clothed atmosphereand friendly hospitalityobviouslyappealed to the Welsh poet. Hewroteto his parents about American food. He had sampled milk shakes, friedshrimp and "a T-bone steak the size of a month's ration for an Englishfamily."
Healso liked to eat at a restaurant called the Little Shrimp,which wasattached to the Hotel Chelsea. It was the place where one of the mostsignificant recording deals was struck.
Barbara Cohen (later Holdridge) and Marianne Roney (laterMantell) were two young women, college graduates, who nurturedthe idea that recordings of poetry could sell in sufficient quantities tojustify such a venture. They had decided that Dylan would be the idealcontemporary poet for them to record.
Barbara worked for a small publisher and Marianne worked for arecord company. After several unsuccessful approaches they finallygot him to meet them at the Little Shrimp and he agreed to theirrequest. "As far as Dylan was concerned," said Mrs. Mantell later,"we were justtwo younggirls withan ideaand some money."
On 22nd February 1952, Dylan arrived for the recording atSteinway Hall on 57th Street. He had a sheaf of poems, but theengineer told him that they would only fill one side of a long-playing record. Dylanfound a copy of Harper's Bazaar, which containedA Child's Christmas in Wales, a story he had put togetherfrom two earlier writings. The finished recordingwas released on 2ndApril and sold modestly at first.
The record of Dylan Thomas was the launch of Caedmon, acompany formed by the two enterprising women and poweredby their own money. It became one of the leading spoken-wordrecording labels and is now part of HarperCollins. It was also thebeginning of the spoken-word recording industry. Since Dylan's firstrecording many great and famous literary figures have committedtheir voicesto Caedmonvinyl, including T.S. Eliot, JamesJoyce. ErnestHemingway and William Faulkner, and actors such as Charlton Hestonand Sir John Gielgud. The company eventually made the two womenvery wealthy.
Onthe 50th anniversary of Dylan's death, Caedmon released DylanThomas: The Caedmon Collection, which contained some previouslyunavailable recordings.
7. WASHINGTON SQUARE HOTEL (HOTEL EARLE)103 Waverly Place (on the corner of MacDougal Street)
"A haven cosy as toast, cool as an icebox..."from A visit to America
Dylan's Hotels in New YorkOn the first tour John Malcolm Brinnin booked Dylan into the
Beekman Hotel, on the corner of First Avenue and 49th Street,in a room at least twenty floors up. Dylan had wanted to stay in anapartment in New York, rather than a hotel, and he did not like theBeekman. As it was. the hotel management soon asked him to leavebecause of his partying and excessive demands on room service.
He was booked here into the Hotel Earle, which was a cheaper
place than the Beekman and also close to his favourite bars andrestaurants in Greenwich Village. In the 1950s the Earle was asomewhat well-worn hotel. The atmosphere and the attitude of themanagement and staff was easy-going. Dylan wrote a letter to hisparents in May 1950 in which he described the Earle as "rightin Washington Square, a beautiful Square, which is right in the middleof Greenwich Village, the artists' quarter of New York."
Dylan and his wife Caitlin, on the second tour in 1952, spent acouple of nights at the Hotel Earle before moving in to the HotelChelsea, where they had a one-room kitchenette apartment.
The Hotel Chelsea is situated on West 23rd Street, between
Seventh and Eighth Avenues. Constructed in 1883. it becameDylan's "home" on his American tours. Other famous literary figureshave stayed there, including 0. Henry, Thomas Wolfe and ArthurMiller. Some famous people who lived there for a while include SarahBernhardt, Jackson Pollack and the Welsh musician John Cale along withhis then wife Betsey Johnson.
It was at the Chelsea that Dylan worked on the final version of UnderMilk Wood prior to its New York premiere. It was also from there thathe was taken, unconscious, to St. Vincent's Hospital, where he died afterfailing to come out of a coma. A plaque on the Hotel Chelsea reads:"Dylan Thomas lived and wrote at the Chelsea Hotel and from here hesailed out to die."
8. E.E. CUMMINGSS APARTMENT4 Patchin Place (off West 10th Street
between 6th Avenue and Greenwich Avenue)
"Time passes. Listen.Time passes"from Under Milk Wood
Dylan's FriendshipsThe American poet e.e. cummings (Edward Estlin Cummings)
lived here, with his third wife Marion Morehouse, a photographerand fashion model, from 1923 until his death in 1962. Dylan reallyadmired cummings and. on the first tour of New York, he made aspecial request to Brinnin to arrange a meeting with him. Brinnin,who was present when Dylan and e.e. met, wrote in Dylan Thomas inAmerica: "...itseemed to me that some of their judgements showed theacerb, profound and confident insights of artists who in their work havedefined a world within the world..."
Cummings, in fact, had been in the audience at Dylan's first readingat the Kaufmann Auditorium of the 92nd Street Y on February 23rd1950, where Dylan delivered a spellbinding performance to anaudience of more than a thousand people. The overwhelmed andappreciative audience refused to let him leave the stage. According toMarion Morehouse, cummings was so moved he walked the streets forhours afterwards.
The following week or so Marion Morehouse invited Dylan here toPatchin Place to take his photograph. Dylan had had a few drinks andattempted a playful seduction. She described him as "Groucho Marxon a bad day."
After Dylan's death a committee was formed by his Americanpublisher James Laughlin to organise support for Caitlin and herfamily. Cummings was part of this committee, and an amount of$20,000 was raised.
There is another connection between Patchin Place and Dylan.The writer Djuna Barnes lived in 5 Patchin Place from the 1940sonwards. She was an obsessive recluse. According to ConstantineFitzgibbon, Dylan's first biographer, Barnes, along with James Joyce,influenced Dylan's early prose writing. It has been noted byothers that Dylan particularly liked her novel Nightwood. which waspublished in 1936.
Dylan made some very good friendships in New York, in particularwith David Slivka, a sculptor, and his wife Rose, an art critic.Rose, infact,became Caitlin's closest friend in America. Rose said of Caitlin, "She
was the artist's wife, and that can be a terrible place to be." The Slivkaslived in Greenwich Village. David was born on the same day and yearas Dylan. 27th October 1914, and it was he and Rosewho looked afterCaitlinwhen Dylan was in a coma and after he died.
It was David who made Dylan's death mask. The original mask is inan upstairs bedroom of the Boat House in Laugharne, Wales. The maskused to belong to Richard Burton and ElizabethTaylor until it was soldafter Burton's death. The last bust cast from the mask is in the DylanThomas Centre in Swansea, Wales. David and Rose later divorced, but
David, aged ninety-four years, stillworks and liveswith his partner, Joan,in New York.
Other New York friends included poet and anthologist OscarWilliams and his wife Gene Derwood, also a poet, New Zealand poetAllen Curnow and poet Jean Garrigue. Jean once held a party for Dylanwhere he met a very young Andy Warhol. Poet John Berryman andBritish poet Ruthven Todd were also friends; and both kept a vigilat St.Vincent's when Dylan was hospitalized. Berryman was in Dylan's roomwhen he died. It was he who rushed up to John Malcolm Brinnin andsaid. "He's dead! He's dead! Where were you?"
9. ST. VINCENTS HOSPITAL11th Street at 7th Avenue
"And my shining men no more aloneAs I sail out to die"
from Poem on his birthday
Dylan's Death.St. Vincent's Hospital is straight up 11th Street from the White
Horse Tavern. Dylan's favourite New York bar. Roman Catholics ran thehospital, when Dr. Milton Feltenstein, Liz Reitell's doctor, ordered anambulance to take an unconscious Dylan there.
The myth is that Dylan died as a result of a drinking bout in the WhiteHorse Tavern, when he declared to Liz Reitell back at the Hotel Chelsea
"I've had eighteen straight whiskies. I think that's a record." The truthis more complex.
When he arrived in New York on Monday. 19th October 1953, forhis fourth tour, he was already desperately ill. Yet he still seemed tohave no desire to curtail his drinking or smoking. There is evidence thathe was becoming increasingly dependent on medication. He was alsosuffering blackouts, and his behaviour, at times, was erratic.
On Tuesday, 3rd November, he started weeping in his bedroom atthe Chelsea. He told Liz Reitell that he wanted to die and "go to thegarden of Eden." At two o'clock in the morning he told her he had to
continued on pg 5
have a drink and left for the White Horse. He returned to the Chelsea
and boasted about the whiskies.
He slept until the middle of the morning of 4th November.He went with Liz Reitell to the White Horse, where he had twoglasses of beer. On returning to the Chelsea he became so unwell thatDr. Feltenstein was called three times. Feltenstein's fourth summoning
to the Chelsea on Thursday, 5th November, resulted in Dylan's beingrushed to St. Vincent's where he was admitted at two minutes before
two a.m.
Caitlin arrivedat Idlewild Airporton Sunday morning,where she wasmet by David and Rose Slivka. When she saw Brinnin she asked. "Well,isthe bloody man dead or alive?" She broke down when she saw Dylanand was taken by the Slivkas to their apartment on Washington Street,in order to calm herself and rest. When she returned to St. Vincent's
she dismayed the nurses by smoking near the oxygen tent and almostthreatening Dylan's breathing in a lovingembrace.
Her deep despair turned to violence and she started to abuse andattack Brinnin and hospital nuns and nurses. She was placed in astrait-jacket and taken to the Rivercrest Mental Institution in Astoria,Long Island. She later wrote, "I was possessed of ten thousandravaging demons. Mymadness:an untutored broken heart."
Dylan died at lunchtime on 9th November 1953,while a nursewasgiving him a bed bath. Poet John Berryman was the onlyother personpresent. To this day there is a controversy over what actually causedDylan's death. While his lifestyle of smoking and excessive drinkingcontributed to his bad health, it has been suggested that he sufferedfrom undiagnosed diabetes. However, it ismedical negligence that mostexperts now claim was the real cause. Four days prior to Dylan's deathDr. Feltenstein had given Dylan a high dose of morphine as a sedative.
The post-mortem stated pneumonia as the primarysource of death,with pressureon the brainand a fatty liver as contributing factors.
"And death shall have no dominion.
Dead men naked they shall be one'from And death shall have no dominion
aftersleeping until midday, returned with Liz Reitell to his beloved "TheHorse" for a couple of beers, his final drinks there.Theyreturned to theHotel Chelsea to the last pages of his incredible story.
"Andfreely he goes lostIn the unknown, famous light of great
And fabulous, dear God
Dark is a way and light is a place'from Poem on his birthday
Dylan Thomas is often thought of as the "first rock 'n' roll poet":he spent months away from home touring America, attracted hugeaudiences at his readings, and often got accosted when he appearedin public. He was also the subject of a lot of gossip, rumour, andlegend, just like rock starsand celebrities are today.
In spite of the rumours and gossip and the tragic narrative of hisshort life, he was a great and original poet, a master craftsman whodid, indeed, "labour by singing light" to leave to the world a wonderfulcollection of poems and prose inspired by Wales.
"I build my bellowing arkTo the best of my love..."

10. WHITE HORSE TAVERN567 Hudson Street at West 11th Street
"And Thou, I know, wilt be the first
To see our best side, not our worst"
from Under Milk Wood
Dylan lovingly called it "The Horse." One of New York's oldest bars,dating back to 1880. the White Horse's "British pub atmosphere"made him feel very much at home. He would have seen the mastsand funnels of ships in the Hudson River teasing the sky at the endsof streets, possibly reminding him of Swansea's dockside area. He andfellow writers would also have chatted and sat with the seamen and
dockworkers who frequented the White Horse.In Dylan's day an elderly German gentleman and his wife ran the
Tavern. Many other writers, literary figures, and artists have alsoenjoyed a drink there, including Norman Mailer, James Baldwin, JackKerouac. the Clancy Brothers, Bob Dylan and Jim Morrison. It is DylanThomas, though, who is most associated with the bar.
It is now famously linked to Dylan's death. At two a.m. onWednesday, 4th November, he inexplicably left Liz Reitell at the HotelChelsea and disappeared for around two hours. When he returned toher he made the claim that he had downed eighteen straight whiskies.However, when friends later questioned the proprietor, he said itwas more likelythat Dylan had had six whiskies.
Even after the now legendary episode of the whiskies, Dylan.

Debunking myths about Dylan Thomas in an official walking tour of New York's historic Greenwich Village.
Dylan 81 Caithn:Copynght JeffTowns
Dylan Thomas was greeted like a rock star when he crossed America to give his legendary readings to huge audiences. InGreenwich Village, he was able to enjoy literary and musical pursuits in more relaxed and less public way. The architectureand atmosphere appealed to him. He wrote to his parents saying that he found Washington Square Park, ' very beautiful.'
St tuke in the Fields inspired Dylan's "Child's Christmas in Wales,"he went to visit his pal ee cummings in Patchin Place,and ate his first meal in America (which he said was as big as a month's ration for a British family).
The two hour tour was created in association with Aeronnwy Thomas, Dylan's daughter who was able to 'trial' the tour justbefore she died. The tour guide is Ianto Roberts whose voice has an uncanny similarity to Dylan's. He weaves tales aboutthe extrovert bohemian artists of 1950's Greenwich Village in with stories about Thomas' life and death in New York.

Dylan Thomas and his wife, Caitlin.
By Roger Rapoport / McClatchy-Tribune News Service
LAUGHARNE, Wales —In his short life, Dylan Thomas became one of the world's firstmultimedia superstars through his spellbinding poetry, stage readings and dramatic writing for
the stage, screen, radio and television.
Just 39 when he died in November 1953, Thomas also was an inspiration for a generation of
younger artists, ineluding Bob Dylan and John Lennon. Followinghis passing, countless girls were
named in honor of his widow, Caitlin. His poetry, stories such as "A Child's Christmas in Wales"
and the play "Under Milk Wood" remain central to the Welsh literary canon.
This year, the centenary of his birth, offers a perfect opportunity to take a hike along the Dylan
Thomas trail. There is no better place to start this Welsh eoastal journey than Browns Hotel, the
Laugharne public house where he did some of his best work.
You never know who might join you for the Dylan Thomas 100 Festival. As I was leaving Browns,
the owner suggested delaying my departure and joining the small crowd gathered outside. An
hour later Prince Charles and the Duchess of Windsor greeted our group and made an
unannounced visit to this literary shrine, just a short walk from the idyllicboathouse where
Thomas lived with Caitlin and their children.
Something of a workaholic who rewrote his poems hundreds
of times in the small writing shed above his residence,
Thomas aiso was the life of the party on his legendary- tours
at home and across America. A series of multimedia
Laugharne weekends this summer are offered as "less a
Dylan Thomas festival than the kind of festival Dylan would
have liked to go to," according to the Dylan Thomas
Centennial program published by the sponsors of the Dylan
Thomas 100 program.
Easily combinable with hiking tours along the Wales Coast
Path is a pilgrimage to bucolic Carmarthenshire, which
inspired Thomas' famed poem "Fern Hill." It's also easy to
reach New Quay, the Ceredigion fishing village that became
the wellspring for the fictional village of Llareggub and his
poem "Quite Early One Morning."
If you go
The Welsh like to joke about the fact thatit costs $10 in bridge tolls to enter theirland, but there's no charge to leave.Well worth the tariff, a visit to DylanThomas Centennial (www.dt100.info)begins with a trip to Swansea (threehours west of London) and the DylanThomas Centre. Although centennialevents are being staged in many Welshand UKvenues, this is a great place tostart your journey, you can pick up mapsand a picturesque set of walkingguides.www.swafieeaisyuK/aylanthsmgs.
Literature Wales is sponsoring
a wide range of special events
ineluding kayaking trips, pony
trap rides and behind the
scenes tours. For more details

Although Thomas is celebrated for his own work, his readings
ofShakespeare and the great British poets were oftenstanding-room-only events attracting the likes of T.S. Eliot,
CharlieChaplin,Arthur Millerand William Faulkner. Hisout-of-town tryouts included a solo performance of "Under Milk
Wood" at the Salad Bowl cafe on Tenbv's north cliff.

To hear Prince Charles reading
Thomas' "Fern Hill"go to
This reading, his last UK performance before his fatal journey to America, is just one more
landmark on the Thomas trail, which also includes the Dylan Thomas Centre in Swansea, his
hometown.
The hub of the Dylan Thomas 100 Festival Program, this collection is a literary landmark that
offers a chance to see the writer's notebooks, hear readings of his poetry and join events featuring
some of Wales' best known writers. Because Thomas was a close friend of leading novelists,
playwrights and poets on both sides of the Atlantic, the museum provides a panoramic view of the
mid-20th-centuiy literary canon.
"One of the mast beguiling things about Dylan's social character," wrote his friend, agent and
biographer John Malcolm Brinnin, "was the spell-like illusion of intimacy he would cast upon
anyone who came near. Everyone, it seemed, could command his intimate attention."
This intimacy, which extends to today's audiences, goes far beyond readings of his poetry at
funerals everywhere. Perhaps the most intriguing aspect of a Dvlan Thomas walking tour is the
relationship between his work and village life. As often as he visited world capitals tor his
legendary command performances and partying, Thomas traveled under a cloud of nostalgia for
his native land.
To see why, visit Swansea's Cwmdonkin Park, where Thomas -- as he described it in his radio
broadcast, "Reminiscences of Childhood" — "endured with pleasure, the first agonies of
unrequited love, the first slow boiling in the belly of a bad poem and the struggling and raven-
locked self-dramatization of what, at that time, seemed incurable adolescence."
Although the Dylan Thomas trail is only a small portion of the 870-mile-long Wales Coast Path, it
provides an intimate look at the literary life of an inspiring writer. His early departure from his
celebrated literary life remains the central mystery of life. Walking the Welsh paths he loved
makes one consider the great poems he might have written into his 40s and beyond.

TRAVEL ARTS SYNDICATE
SWANSEA. Wales - Fueled by the invincibilityofyouth, Dylan Thomas Was only 19 when heproclaimed "And death shall have no dominion."
Although he was destined to live only two more
decades, his poem became a personal manifesto.
This year, a century after his birth, death will haveno dominion over one of the 20th century's most
celebrated writers.
Thomas' native Swansea, Wales, is epicenter ofDylan Thomas 100 celebrations that Will run morethan a year. Festivals, exhibits and performances
will radiate out from his "ugly, lovely town" toreverberate throughout Wales.
Thomas was a prodigy, writing two-thirds of his
work before age 23 from his birthplace at 5
Cwmdonkin Drive. Swansea. In addition to poems,
he wrote film scripts, plays and stories, performing
his work on the radio and on stage during tours of
the United States.
He s a YouTube favorite, reading his poetry in
what he called his "breathless boom boom boom."
Some consider Thomas the first modern
multimedia star — he's said to be the most-quoted
author after Shakespeare.
It was on Thomas' fourth American tour in 1953
that, after a drinking bout, he proclaimed in thewee hours of Nov. 4, 'I've had 18 straight
whiskies. I believe that's the record." He collapsed
and died five days later of a "massive insult to thebrain.'
The arc of that short life began in the front room
of the family home in Swansea on Oct. 27, 1914.
The house was lovingly restored to August 1914.
wheri Dylan s parents, D.J. and Florrie Thomas,moved in.
The house and its contents advance along a
timeline. "Bits of chrome are coming in, a directresult of World War I,' said Anne Haden, who puther own money and energy into the restoration.
"In 1922, the crystal radio Will come in, and radiowas very important to Dylan."
Prepare to climb up Cwmdonkin Drive to the
Edwardian house. "You've got to be a Sherpa,"Thomas said, to live here.
Visitors can explore the two-story house with a
free audio tour and even stay overnight in Dylan'sbirthplace room — the front bedroom.
When he started writing at 4, Dylan loved to sneakinto his sister Nancy s room to compose. "Iwanted
to write poetry in the beginning because I had
fallen in love with words ..." he wrote in his Poetic

Manifesto. "I cared for fhe colors the words cast
on my eyes."
Thomas never liked his own room, a tiny
renovated bedroom ... hardly any light, book-knife. No red cushion. No cushion at all. Hard
chair. Smelly. Painful. Hot water pipes very near.Gurgle all the time. Nearly go mad. Niceviewofwall through window."
In his parents' bedroom at the back of the house,guests stilllook out to the town "crawling,sprawling by a long and splendid curvingshore" ofSwansea Bay.
In October, the Dylan Birthplace will sponsor TheDylanathon,a photo-marathon celebrating the lifeand work of Dylan Thomas. Themes from hiswriting willprovide the cues.
IndowntownSwansea May31-Aug. 31, the DylanThomas Centre on Somerset Place will display his
notebooks, which are returning to Swansea for fhefirst time. The center has an extensive permanent
Dylan Thomas exhibition, from his "too happychildhood" to his death in New York.
The exhibit opens with a tweed suit Thomas borrowed froman American painter, Jorge Fick, whenthewriterran out of clean clothes in NewYork. Fick was storing his clothes at the Chelsea Hotel,whereThomas collapsed, and this Is the suit he was wearingwhen he was taken to fhe hospital. Noone knowsifthe ink stain in the right trouser pocket was from Dylan's pen.
For such a multimedia star, there are no moving images Of Thomas, just a silent newsreel of his funeralprocession in Laugharne. Buthis recordings continueto be money-spinnersfor his estate.
The Thomas Centre will be the headquarters for the special 2014 Dylan Thomas Festival, lasting fromhis birthday Oct. 17 to Nov.9, the anniversary of his death.
Nearby, the Swansea City Centre Trail traces Thomas' life along the old landmarksand pubs he knew.One of the stops is The Uplands Hotel, nowthe Uplands Tavern, where he first tasted beet: "Itslive Whitelather, its brass-bright depths, the sudden world through the wet brown walls of the glass, the tilted rushto the lips."
The tour also pops into Swansea's AdelphiTavern on Wind Street, where Thomas drank as a cubreporter. Heleftschoolat 16, with no credentials, and became a reporterforthe SouthWalesEveningPost. Itwas the only regular Job he ever held.
Thomas wrote and scrambled for money throughout his 20s, often heading lo Oxford and London. On atrip to the capital In 1936. he met bohemian dancer Caitlin Macnamara In a pub. They married in 1937,and a year later moved to Laugharne. about 30 milesnorthwest of Swansea, to make a home forfheirchildren, Aeronwy, Llewellyn and Colm.
Laugharne, on a nook of the RiverTaf, is an ancient, oliffside settlement with a 13th-century fortress, fthas a venerable literary past, too. Feminist philosopher MaryWollstonecraft lived in Laugharne, and herdaughter Mary Shelley, author of Frankehstein. often visited. Novelist Kingsley Amis wrote during staysin the town, and Margaret Atwood set a short story in Laugharne.
Thomas called it simply "the strangest town in Wales."

This is the year to hike the DylanThomas trail
Posted Saturday August 9 2014 10 30 pm
BY ROGER RAPOPORT McClatchy-Tribune
LAUGHARNE, Wales — In his short life,
Dylan Thomas became one ofthe world's
first multimedia superstars through his
spellbinding poetry, stage readings, and
dramatic writing for the stage, screen, radio
and television.
Just 39 when he died in November 1953,
Thomas also was an inspiration for a
generation of younger artists, including BobDylan and John Lennon. Following his
passing, countless girls were named in
honor of his widow, Caitlin. His poetry,
stories like "A Child's Christmas in Wales"

to start this Welsh coastal journey than

offered as "less a DylanThomas festival than the kind of festival Dylanwould have liked togo to," according to the DylanThomas Centennial program published by the sponsors ofthe DylanThomas 100 program.

Although Thomas is celebrated for his ownwork, his readings of Shakespeare and thegreat Britishpoets were often standing-room-only events attracting the likes of T.S. Eliot,
Charlie Chaplin, Arthur Millerand William Faulkner.
The hub ofthe DylanThomas 100 Festival Program, the Dylan Thomas Centre in
Swansea, his hometown, is a literary landmark that offers a chance to see the writer's
notebooks, hear readings of his own poetry and join events featuring some of Wales' best
known writers. Because Thomas was a close friend of leading novelists, playwrights and
poets on both sides ofthe Atlantic, the museum provides a panoramic view ofthe mid-
20th century literary canon.
"One ofthe most beguiling things about Dylan's social character," wrote his friend, agent
and biographer John Malcolm Brinnin,"was the spell-like illusionof intimacy he would cast
upon anyone who came near."
This intimacy, which extends to today's audiences, goes far beyond readings of his poetry
at funerals everywhere. Perhaps the most intriguing aspect of a Dylan Thomas walking
tour is the relationship between his work and village life.As often as he visited world
capitals for his legendary performances and partying, Thomas traveled under a cloud of
nostalgia for his native land.
To see why, visit Swansea's Cwmdonkin Park, where Thomas — as he described in his
radio broadcast, "Reminiscences of Childhood" — "endured with pleasure, the first
agonies of unrequited love, the first slow boiling in the belly of a bad poem and the
struggling and raven-locked self-dramatization of what, at that time, seemed incurable
adolescence."
Although the Dylan Thomas trail is only a small portion ofthe 870-mile-long Wales Coast
Path, it provides an intimate look at the literary life of an inspiring writer. His early
departure from his celebrated literary life remains the central mystery of life.Walking the
Welsh paths he loved makes one consider the great poems he might have written into his
40s and beyond.

In Swansea's renovated Maritime Quarter, steps from theharbor, book a room at stately Morgans Hotel. The PortAuthority's former brick andlimestone headquarters nowfeatures luxurious rooms with polished woodwork and highceilings, an elegant dining room anda spacious column-linedbar.
Around the cornerat The Dylan Thomas Centre, a permanentexhibit displays the poet's manuscripts, photos and othermemorabilia, including the borrowed, ink-stained suit he woreon hisfetal lecture tour in New York in1953. The center'sbookstore stocks copies ofThomas works and CD's, plusexcellent guidebooks like The Dylan Thomas Trail, a four partseries, and Dylan Thomas: Swansea, Gower and laugharnebyJamesA. Davies (University ofWales Press, 2000).
TheCentre isalso the siteoftheannual, two week DylanThomas Festival, October 27-November 9. ReflectingThomas' reputation as both a distinguished man ofletters anda beer swilling roustabout, the festival is similarlyeclectic.Onenight I hear Gillian Clarke, the distinguished white-
maned National Poet ofWales, reading from her newly pennedstory inspired by Thomas' "A Child's Christmas in Wales."Another night, the Bluestocking Lounge stages an uproariousburlesque showalternating bawdy striptease acts withsnatches of poetry.
It's a short walk to the waterside where, in Dylan ThomasSquare, a bronzestatue ofthe seated poet overlooks a yachtfilled marina. Here, too, is the Dylan Thomas Theatre, oncethe Swansea Little Theatre,where the poet performed as ateenager. Rising above, it all is the contemporaryMeridianTower, where the Grape &Olive restaurant serves upWelshspecialties like fish pie, and cawl, a hearty lamb stew. Samplethe country's finest ales anddrink infabulous 360degreeviews ofthe "harp shaped hills"and "water lidded lands"thatinspired Thomas.
In the hilltop enclave ofThe Uplands isthe Dylan ThomasBirthplace, a stucco andbrick Edwardian style"villa." Fromthesecond floor guest room, where thepoet was born, enjoysplendid views ofSwansea Bay. In the downstairs parlour,'with itsbrick fireplace guarded bywhite ceramic poodles, ashiny brass gramophone and flowered sofa,"the unclessnoozed" in Thomas' famous reminiscence in, "A Child'sChristmas in Wales." You can rent the entire four bedroomhouse fora day or longer. Or just ring up homeowner GeoffHaden and pop in for a tour.

Steps away is Cwmdonkin Park, which Thomas fondly recalledas "a world within the world of the sea town." Guarded byenormous yew trees like a sacred Druidic site, the rollinggreens are dotted with huge oaks. The cast iron fountain thatThomas and his playmates drank from is still there. Beside agentle rill, shaded by weeping willows, a memorial boulder isinscribed with the final verse of "Fern Hill."
In The Uplands, the poet's upwardly mobile father soughtmiddle class respectability. But, down near the waterfront,Thomas came of age. Steps from Morgans Hotel, Dylanworked at the South WalesEvening Post for a year as a cubreporter before devoting himself entirely to poetry. Thenewspaper offices have moved but around the corner, theQueens Hotel, a pub Thomas and fellow reporters frequented,remains. Since Dylan's day, when the "shillingwomen" wrotethe price of their favors on the soles of their shoes, much haschanged. But the longburnished woodbar remains and Gary,the proprietor, plans to class up the joint by decorating thewalls with Dylan Thomas verses.
Facing Morgans, Wind Street, once choekablock with winemerchants, is now lined with several blocks of pubs. On aSaturday night, the No Sign Wine Bar, another Thomaswatering hole, is a people watcher's paradise packed withyoung men in tee shirts and black leather jackets and youngwomen tarted up in skintight mini-dresses and spandex.
Mumbles—or as purists put it, The Mumbles—is about fivemileswest ofSwansea. Facing the bay, the town's singlemainstreet is lined with inns, restaurants and pubs, includingTheAntelope, another Dylan Thomas haunt. Mumbles is thegateway to the Gower Peninsula, chosen as the U.K.'s first"Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty" in 1956. It's rimmedwith more than a dozenbays and another dozensandybeaches. Asa boy, Thomas camped here with his family. Asateenager, he romanced localgirls on the golden sands ofLangland and Caswell Bays, and climbed the limestone cliffs atRhossili. Today, visitors surf, ride horses, kayak andmountain bike here. They also hike the 35 mile GowerWay,which crosses the peninsula, or the 39 mile Gower leg ofthe870 mile. Wales Coastal Path, the first trail to encircle anentire country.
An hour west of Swansea lies the village of Laugharne—pronounced "larn"—where Thomas spent the last four yearsof his life. He delighted in the "legendary lazy little blackmagicalbedlam by the sea" whose splendor also captivatedSamuel Coleridge and Man- Wollstonecraft, feminist author ofA Vindication ofthe Rights of Women and mother ofFrankenstein author Mary Shelley.
Smack in the middle of town at Browns Hotel, Thomas heldcourt daily, while seated in a bay window,sipping ale andplaying cards. The 14 spacious upstairs rooms have all beenrecently renovated as have those at another Thomas haunt,The New Three Mariners Inn.

Thomas rented lime green Pelican House across the street forhis elderly parents. In 1951,inspired by his dyingfather,Thomas wrote the poem, "Do Not Go Gentle Into That GoodNight," urging him to "Rage,rage against the dyingofthelight." Two years later, Dylan's own body lay in state herebefore being buried under a simple white cross in nearby St.Martin's Churchyard.

Also acrossfromthe hotel, CorranBooks Ispresidedover bythe leonine George Tremlett, whowrote a 1991 Dylan Thomasbiography and co-wrote a 1986 autobiography by CaitlinMacnamara, Dylan's golden haired wife and muse. In the tell-all book,whichdetails the couple's enduring love as wellastheir frequent infidelities and drunken brawls, Caitlin recalledspending the happiest years of their marriage at Sea View, ayellow and white house around the corner.
It's a short walkto the RiverTaf Estuary, guarded by12"'century Laugharne Castle. In adjacent Castle House,novelist Richard Hughes wrote his 1929bestsellerAHighWind inJamaica. In the house's gazebo, Thomas later wrotehisshort story collection, Portrait ofthe Artist as a YoungTk>y. Here the two writers and their wives often entertainedguests like Welsh painter AugustusJohn, who,years earlier,seduced a teenaged Caitlin to pose for a portrait.

Just beyond Castle House in his whitewashed Writing Shed,Thomas wrote his famous play for voices, Under Milk Wood,while contemplating cattle across the estuary on Sir John'sHill. BobStevens, a gentleman farmer who keeps cattle there,has laid out a two mile hilltop trail that's modeled after the30"' birthday walk Thomas recounted in "Poem in October."From the hillyou can see clear across the estuaiy's opalescentblue waters rimmed, as Thomas put it, with "mussel pooledand heron priested" shores.

Steps away on a cliffjust above the estuary Is The DylanThomas Boathouse, the "seashaken house" where the poetlivedwith his wife, three children and dog Mably. Visitthesmall parlor with its coal fireplace and humble 1940'sfurniture and watchfilms about Dylan Thomas in an upstairsbedroom. Have tea and a slice of currant-filled Welsh cake onthe slate terrace. Then hie back to Browns, as DylanThomaswouldhave done, to gossipwith the locals, whiledowning acouple pints of ale with the same "brass bright depths" and"live white lather" that inspired the poet.

Hip-hop, Dylan Thomas and Wales
By Kevin Powell
I have been in love with and a participant in hip-hop culture since I was 13. Coming of age in the New York City metro area, the birthplaceof hip-hop, is the reason why, no question. Working-class Black and Latino youth created this music, this energy, and we really had no ideahow much it would affect the entire planet.
Early on I tagged graffiti with magic markers wherever I could, and danced to hip-hop at every kind ofparty imaginable. Somewhere between my college years and the mass explosion of hip-hop in the early1990s I started writing poetry and joined the hip-hop-inspired spoken word movement happening in NewYork. Then when music legend Quincy Jones launched Vibe magazine, to document hip-hop from allangles, I was very fortunate to get on board as one of the staff writers. I interviewed major rap stars ofthe era, including the late Tupac Shakur on several occasions. Years after I would produce the very firstexhibit on hip-hop culture in America, via the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
»»«?,
v/wi*Beyond all of this I have lectured about hip-hop culture, and the differences between the culture and whatI call "the hip-hop industry," across the United States and globally. I have been blown away time againhow hip-hop is the dominant youth culture on the planet. Even in Wales, the United Kingdom, where Irecently spent significant time there is no greater evidence of this than a local organization based inCardiff, the Welsh capital, called Grassroots Cardiff: http://www.grassrootscardiff.com/ «P
I was invited to Grassroots to speak to its youth, who range in age from 16-25 and are all working-class, just asthe famous Welsh coal miners of generations past. Where those miners formed all-male choirs to give voice to theirpassions today the Welsh young people of today have hip-hop. Grassroots Cardiff is a combination multimedia space,self-help center, and safe space for these young people. Three of them performed raps for their peers and myselfand I felt as if I were back somewhere in the U.S.: they wore the "uniforms" of American hip-hop, the baseballcaps, the tee shirts or hoodies, the work boots or sneakers (what they call "daps") in Wales; they had themannerisms of hip-hop down as if they had created it in Wales, not Black and Latino youth in New York City; andthey rapped about their Wales, about their hopes, fears, sorrows, and dreams.
This was hip-hop at its finally, fully loaded from Wales. I took to a microphone to speak with these youth anddiscussed my main reason for being in Wales: the nation's greatest writer ever, Dylan Thomas. Some youth knew ofDylan Thomas and some did not. It did not matter. I shared with them Thomas' short 39-year life and his greatimpact, from his roots in Wales, on African American writers like myself. The Grassroots young people were verysurprised, and I can see a feel of pride swell in the room. For here they were, Welsh young people inspired by anAfrican American art form called hip-hop, yet I, a Black man from America, was telling them that an artist from Wales had affected megreatly.
This is one of the great wonders of Wales, especially given that it has had multi-ethnic communities forcenturies, including the first such neighborhood of its kind, Tiger Bay, right here in Cardiff. So there is anopenness and a crossing of many cultural boundaries here in Wales passed from generation to generation,from African American artist and humanitarian Paul Robeson working with Welsh coal miners in the 1920sand 1930s, to African American me, writer, activist, hip-hop historian, bonding with these Welsh hip-hoppers in the 21st century.
Part of the bond, for sure, is the mutual love and appreciation of music that the Welsh and BlackAmericans share. Coal miners came together to form all-male singing choirs as a way to expressthemselves freely, in their own language, on their own terms. Similarly hip-hop is a mostly all-malecreated art form, created by working-class people just as those Welsh coal miners were, as a way tospeak for themselves, to make something magical seemingly from nothing. I highly recommend to anyAfrican American who visits Wales to not only tour the coal mines, and to spend some time listening toone of the all-male choirs that still exist, but to also stop by places like Grassroots Cardiff.

I was able to visit each of these things and it all deepened not only my appreciation for the people and culture of Wales, but also for myown roots as an African American, and how much my culture means to the world.
