You're very welcome, Sue. Perhaps because success came to her so late, she had an endearing humility.

So often--if writers succeed at very young ages--it goes to their heads by the time they're in the 80s or beyond. One thing I love about Porter is that, apart from being a wonderful poet, she had a charming modesty that shines in her interviews.
