About Me

Poet, experimentalist, romantic, word-person, language gal, Yiddishist, trying to clean up her karma... sensitive, generous to a fault, loving, disarming (and rearming).On an equally serious note: I am a university professor, and my book "Recovering 'Yiddishland'" was published in January (08) by Syracuse University Press. It's a mixture of literary criticism, research, and memoir (you'll love it!). I spent July 2007 as one of the writers-in-residence at the Millay Colony for the Arts, on poet Edna's old estate on the New York side of the Berkshires, working on what I hope will eventually take shape as my next book: "Forgetting Jerusalem," a hybrid of memoir, creative nonfiction, research, and poetry, examining the relationship American Jews have with their "homelands": Israel, Poland, and New York City. In September 08 I was a writer-in-residence at Hawthornden Castle, Lasswade, Scotland, where I did further work on this project.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Poets, especially of avant/alt/"experimental" persuasions; artists; spiritual questers; musicians; speakers of other languages; all-around creative folk... as well as people who, like me, have trouble sleeping some nights because of the crimes against humanity perpetrated by the current Republican administration.
