A Sample of Poetry About the Author Purchase the Book Contact Info		Peter J. Hurley Author of Derby Day Dream: A poetic cronology of the Kentucky Derby Pete started riding horses as a kid. As a teen he worked in stables caring and exercising the horses. For the past 25 years he has attended every Kentuck Derby event with the exception of 2. In the evening at the end of each year's Derby race, he sits with the winner in his heart, and allows the poetic verse to emerge. The next day, in traditional style, he formally reads his winners poem to all nearby and interested. And he ends the weekend event with his harmonica version of the old favorite, "My Old Kentucky Home." If you want to meet Pete at the next event, contact him here.
