Chester Creek Press has published three limited-edition, illustrated poetry chapbooks, Les Festivals des Murmures, Dusk at St. Mark's and Thrive, all of which are held by The British Library and many other libraries and private collections.  I am a frequent contributor to Agenda in the UK (co-founded by Ezra Pound).  I've received residency fellowships from MacDowell and Yaddo.  I earned an MFA in Creative Writing from Cornell University, where I studied with A.R. Ammons, Phyllis Janowitz, Ken McClane and Robert Morgan. I compose and produce music as "Lost in Stars," and have appeared in The LA Times, Nylon, XLR8R, Insomniac, PopMatters, Impose, Big Shot, Earmilk, LA Record, and on KCRW (Los Angeles) and radio stations around the world.
