Lisa Alexander Baron is the author of four poetry collections, including While She Poses, poems prompted by visual art. Her poems appear in Chautauqua, Confrontation, Fourth River, and Philadelphia Stories. She teaches writing and public speaking at two Philadelphia-area colleges. She hosts “Modern Plays Read Aloud” on Meetup, which offers Open Poetry and Monologue Readings for poets and actors. 

 

 

 

Rodger Lowenthal’s new chapbook, fourteen, has just be released by the Moonstone Press. He has this to say:

“I started writing poetry when I was a freshman at Penn State. I had a pattern of finding a girlfriend and writing poetry, until we broke up. Then I started again with a new girlfriend.

I have been with my current “girlfriend” for 46 years, so lots of poetry.

Trivia: I have 5 grandchildren. More trivia: the historian Bernard Bailyn wrote about the “logic of rebellion.” Think about it.”

 

 

Abbey J. Porter writes poetry and memoir about people and relationships, life and loss. She holds an MFA in creative writing from Queens University of Charlotte, an MA in liberal studies from Villanova University, and a BA in English from Gettysburg College. Abbey works in communications and lives in Cheltenham, Pa., with her two beloved dogs—who help her remember to smile, particularly during these challenging times.
