Deborah Bogen’s first full-length collection, Landscape with Silos (Texas A&M University Press, 2006)), was a finalist for the 2004 National Poetry Series and won the 2005 XJ Kennedy Poetry Prize (judge Betty Adcock). An earlier chapbook, Living by the Children’s Cemetery was chosen by Ed Hirsch in the 2002 ByLine Press Competition. She publishes poems and reviews widely, with recent and new work available at The Gettysburg Review, Shenandoah, Poetry International, Indiana Review, Margie, and Crazyhorse (coming out soon) and lots of others.
