About Me

My photo
Born in Rapid City, SD, raised in Wyoming, California and Idaho. I graduated from Skyline High School in Idaho Falls in 1967. BA in English from Carleton College, 1971. MA in Creative Writing and Literature from Boston University, 1974. Ph.D. from the University of South Florida, 2006. Through the 1970s I was a poet-in-residence for a number of communities in the Commonwealths of Massachusetts and Kentucky. In the first half of the 1980s I was a new vaudevillian working as a clown, juggler, magician and male stripper. From 1984 to 1989 I was a journalist working for magazines and newspapers. I began teaching in higher education in 1986 and started at the Ringling College of Art and Design in 1988. I am currently a member of the full-time faculty and Curriculum Advisor for the Literature Area of the Liberal Arts Program. My academic specialities are in the areas of comics, speculative fiction and media studies. My current academic interests are in issues involving narrative, world-building and emerging virtual realities.
