Table of ContentsReviewsAuthor InformationBIOGRAPH Stephen Proper Gredler was born in Ithaca, New York in 1949. When he was three months old the family of four moved to Lexington, Massachusetts where his father, Charles Rogers Gredler, started as a cataloguer at Harvard University's Widener Library-The Slavic Division. His father became the Director of the department, a silent architect of the Cold War, and built the library from 500 volumes to more than 7,000,000 volumes by the time of his retirement in 1979. During that thirty years he was contracted by the Library of Congress to duplicate Widener's holdings. His mother, Eloise Proper Gredler, first became a homemaker using a degree from Cornell to her best advantage, to care for four more children. In later years she started a second career--developing a system for teaching remedial reading to children and adults, parents and teachers, with an emphasis on the treatment of dyslexia. Mr. Gredler's parents retired to Nelson County, Virginia in 1979. He has four brothers and a sister residing in Virginia, nine nieces and nephews, and one grand-niece. Stephen attended private schools all of his life, with brief experiences with public schools when curriculum requirements prevailed, including Bartlett Elementary, Manter Hall, Kalamazoo College, and Northeastern University. He attended the Kaji Aso' Studio Poetry Workshops in Haiku for ten years and the Frost Place Workshop in 1992. He has written twelve books of poetry, a book of his photographs, and has started an artistic book concerning the lives of pure poets and influential writers. He offers a Biograph and writing sample from his latest book, a textbook on Pure Poets: A Pocket Sketchbook at www.stephenpropergredler.com. A tape recording of a Tufts University Radio Show is available at the Poet's Library in Washington D.C. He is an associate member of the New England Poetry Club and had an affiliation with the Copley Society of Art in Boston for fifteen years, leaving the Society after winning 6 juried shows and one award and Copley Artist status. His photography was featured in ZOOM Magazine in 1999. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
