Author's Bio

My poems have been published in such journals as Poetry, The Georgia Review, Triquarterly, ONE, Prairie Schooner, The Cortland Review, Verse-Virtual, and Sycamore Review, and featured on Poetry Daily and The Writers Almanac

I retired in 2016 from teaching writing and literature at Ripon College, where I also hosted their Visiting Writers Series for twenty-eight years. I served on The Poets’ Prize Committee and the Wisconsin Poet Laureate Commission and was a Resident Poet as well as faculty member at The Frost Place in Franconia, New Hampshire. For Verse-Virtual I published a regular column, “Poetic License,” on poetry and poets from 2016-2022.
