About the Author:

Since then he has published numerous books of poetry, critical essays and translations. His many awards include the Harold Morton Translation Award for his SELECTED TRANSLATIONS (1998). DeLoss McGraw received his art training at Michigan's Cranbook Academy of Art where he earned an MFA in 1973. Mr. McGraw was a pioneer of a movement in the early 1980s that presented art in collaboration with literature. His work has been exhibited extensively in the U.S. and in Europe.
