Author Information

Jon DeVries grew up in the cold and snow of Rochester, New York. At age 20 he left there and never looked back, falling in love with and living in the American Southwest ever since. Over the course of his life, he has been a painter, a singer in 2 very successful bands, a songwriter, a salesman, a counsellor and worked in feature film and international video shoot team logistics for 10 years. He and his wife now spend time in homes in both Florida and Arizona. Though a songwriter of over 60 songs, this is Jon's first book of poetry, an electic mix representing all the experience and lessons and wisdom of a lifetime of 70 years. His always upbeat and optimistic and reflective view of life is embodied in these works and the coming out of that kind of book, in these days of pandemics and too much bad news, is well-timed. Future works are planned and more information on Jon and any upcoming projects can be seen by visiting curtainofozpublications.com.
