About Davd P. Langenhorst
David has started his 8th decade of life and is a veteran of the U.S. Navy from the Vietnam era. He retired from a career in ship repair and shipbuilding. As a docent at the San Diego Maritime Association, David has spent many hours aboard the Star of India. This sailing ship was launched in 8963 with the name Euterpe. In Greek mythology, Euterpe was the muse of lyric poetry. Perhaps Euterpe took a liking to David. David’s life took a downturn when he went into a deep depression With the help of family, therapists and fellow patients, the depression was conquered. Self expression is part of mental health therapy. A therapist suggested that David could write a poem or short story if he didn’t want to draw or paint. After some time, David felt brave enough to read his poems in public. On Earth Day 2019 he joined the circle of Poets at The Bench in Balboa Park. David was welcomed by the host Deborah Ramos and the other poets. Now he is thrilled to be a participant in the San Diego poetry community. David’s poems have been published in Bads Against Hunger Anthology, San Diego Poetry annual, End of an Era, January 21, 2022, and I Ache in the Places I Used to Play.

Thursday, November 7, 2024 — Increasing Native American representation in the information technology industry
Good pay and a strong job demand are among the factors that make the information technology industry an promising career choice. But a study by the Kapor Center shows Native Americans are significantly underrepresented in the IT workforce. The divide is even wider for Native women.
