- Livros
Scott Lowery’s poems appear in numerous print and online journals, including Prairie Schooner, River Styx, Nimrod, RockPaperPoem, and the Wisconsin Poetry Calendar. His new chapbook, Mutual Life (Finishing Line, 2023), documents everyday life during tumultuous times. Lowery has been awarded the Julia Darling Memorial Poetry Prize, Pushcart and Best of Net nominations, and a residency at the Anderson Center. Empty-handed won the Emergence Chapbook Prize from Red Dragonfly Press (2013). A 30-year veteran public school teacher, Lowery has presented writing workshops to young poets from grade school through college. Two of his teaching poems are anthologized in Stronger Than Fear (Cave Moon, 2022), a collection of social justice poems. After three decades living among the river bluffs and valleys of SE Minnesota, Lowery and his wife Connie Blackburn moved to Milwaukee in 2019, drawn by the inexorable pull of young grandchildren.
