Peter Baroth, writer, visual artist, musician, and staff member of Philadelphia Stories Magazine lives in Media, PA with his partner poet and professor Courtney Bambrick. His recent full-length book of poetry is Lost Autographs (Moonstone Press) and his novel is Long Green (iUniverse). His work has appeared in journals such as Mad Poets Review, Apiary, Schuylkill Valley Journal, and Philadelphia Poets where he has won both the Amy Tritsch Needle and Petracca Family awards. His paintings have appeared in such venues as the Imperfect Gallery, OUR Gallery, and the Wayne Art Center. He is also bass player and co-songwriter for the band the Party Crashers.
Bob McNeil, writer, editor, and spoken word artist, is the author of Verses of Realness. Hal Sirowitz, a Queens Poet Laureate, called the book “A fantastic trip through the mind of a poet who doesn’t flinch at the truth.” Among Bob’s recent accomplishments, he found working on Lyrics of Mature Hearts to be a humbling experience because of the anthology’s talented contributors. Copies of that collection are available here: Amazon.com
Pheralyn Dove is passionate about creating art that promotes the ideals of Cultural Preservation, Global African/Black Liberation and Emotional Healing. Although primarily a writer and performance poet, Pheralyn has emerged as a visual artist, working in mixed media, photography and abstract expressionism and has been included in “Generations 7 – Reflections on the Isms: Racism, Sexism, Ageism” curated by Dindga McCannon at Rush Arts Gallery Philadelphia. Pheralyn is the featured poet on Khan Jamal’s “Return from Exile” and Tyrone Brown’s, “Moon of the Falling Leaves” CDs. She has been a press agent, radio producer, entertainment editor for the “Philadelphia Tribune,” feature writer for the “Philadelphia Inquirer,” and lead grant writer on teams that have raised more than $175 million dollars for worthy nonprofit concerns. “All praises to the Creator,” she says. “Thank you for choosing me as the vessel.”
