Dr. Neal Hall is a medical-surgical eye physician, an internationally acclaimed poet, who has performed poetry readings throughout the United States and internationally. Dr. Hall is an award-winning author of Nigger For Life, Winter’s A’ Coming Still, Where Do I Sit, and Appalling Silence. The intellectual and philosopher Cornel West, Ph.D., said of Dr. Hall “ [he] is a warrior of the spirit, a warrior of the mind, an activist, a poet. I sense Dr. Hall’s hypersensitivity to suffering – Martin, Malcolm and Jesus all had this hypersensitivity. Both sides of his soul have prophetic leanings. His poetry has the capacity to change ordinary people’s philosophy on social and racial issues.”
Krisann Janowitz has always had a passion for poetry and words (since elementary school– if you count all the song lyrics about bubblegum). She was Editor-in-Chief of the St. Joseph’s University literary magazine, The Avenue and her poems have been published by streetcake magazine, The Avenue, Cliterature Journal and Z Publishing. Along with her chapbook Home(less): A Sampling of Poems on Home & Homelessness published by Moonstone Press, Krisann is host of Moonstone’s New Voices.
