Profile

I was born in Philadelphia and studied at Columbia University in New York City.  After working in publishing for a few years I came to the UK to study in Cambridge.  I started off as an early modernist, and wrote a PhD on the funeral elegy in the seventeenth century, though now my interests range across British and American poetry more broadly.  I am a poet, and work closely with contemporary poets in the UK and abroad.  I have performed throughout the UK, Europe, Canada, the US, Lebanon, and Chile, and have been invited to speak about poetry by the British Academy, British Council, the BBC, the Arts Council, and the Poetry Society.  My work has been translated into French, German, Spanish, Slovene, Slovak, Finnish, Greek, Catalan, and Croatian, and has been the subject of a large number of critical essays.
