For West Bloomfield Teen, Poetry is a Passion

West Bloomfield High School senior Olivia Finkelstein competes in state poetry recitation contest this weekend.

Patch will regularly spotlight young people in the Greater West Bloomfield area community who are successful, talented and just plain awesome. Today we spotlight someone who is no stranger to the spotlight: Do you know a local young person who deserves applause because he or she shovels the elderly neighbors' driveway? Or perhaps athletic achievements are worth sharing. Everyone deserves attention, and we want to tell these stories. Email nominations to local editor Tim Rath at tim.rath@patch.com, provide the information shown above and include a photo with names and ages. Then, come back for our Whiz Kid spotlight. For more information on Poetry Out Loud, visit poetryoutloud.org or michiganhumanities.org.
