Anita SullivanBorn under the sign of Libra, Anita Sullivan cheerfully admits to a life governed by issues of balance and harmony. This likely led to her career as a piano tuner, as well as her love of birds (Libra is an air sign), gardening, music, and fine literaure. She spent years trying to decide if she was a piano tuner who wrote poetry or a poet who tuned pianos. She traveled a lot without becoming a nomad; taught without becoming a teacher; danced without becoming a dancer; fell totally in love with the high desert country of the Southwest and promptly moved to the Pacific Northwest rainforest. She has previously published two essay collections, a novel, two poetry chapbooks, and a full-length poetry collection. Her collection of short essays, The Bird That Swallowed the Music Box, was published by Shanti Arts in 2018. She was a founding member of the Portland, Oregon, poetry publishing collective Airlie Press. - www.anitasullivan.org Read More Read Less
