Join us as we host William A. Greenfield for a Poetry Reading.
William grew up some forty miles north of New York City in the small hamlet of Montrose, New York, where he learned how to play baseball, climb trees, and make change at the local supermarket. He first began to write poetry while attending the State University of New York at Plattsburgh. For years after that, his writing became only an occasional dabbling. At the urging of his daughter, he once again delved into the world of poetry in more recent years to the point where it became a regular part of his existence. His poems can be found in numerous journals including The Westchester Review, Carve Magazine, The East Coast Literary Review, and many others. In 2012 he won Storyteller Magazine’s People’s Choice Award. He resides in Sullivan County, New York in the middle of the woods and he likes it there.
Bill Greenfield will treat us to readings from his book: Circadian Fallacy (2020). Join us for an evening of his poetry along with discussion of his process. Fr. Bob Phelps, O.F.M. Cap., describes Bill's work as " . . . delights and moves the reader with his varied textured and multi-hued poetry in this wide-screened tableau of life and the intricacies of relationships living in rural Sullivan County, N.Y."
