This was the YT Retreat at Asilomar that had Robert Hass as the featured guest. He is shown signing a copy of his book The Essential Haiku for Garry Gay. Garry is well known in haiku circles, having been active in (or a founder and/or president of) Haiku Poets of Northern California, Haiku Society of America, American Haiku Archive (California State Library) and Haiku North America.

are even more wonderful
