I was introduced to poetry-writing by a wise teacher at a small Quaker school in Southern California in the late 1960s; I studied classical Chinese poetry at UC Berkeley. To date, my poetry is a fairly well-kept secret. My poems have appeared in a few anthologies including Ravishing DisUnities: Real Ghazals in English (2000), and in some journals (generally obscure) such as Tamarind, Cha, Ocho, Voice & Verse, and Contemporary Ghazals. I live in LA.
