Biography Edit

She was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

A graduate of the Johns Hopkins Writing Seminars, she was Director of Poetry in the Writing Division at Columbia University School of the Arts in New York City.

Her long narrative poem, Jessica from the Well, tells the story of 18-month-old Jessica McClure, who was trapped in a well in Texas, from McClure's point of view, describing her as having a basic understanding of the physical and mythic elements of her situation. It has been reprinted numerous times.[2]
