BIOGRAPHY Born in the San Francisco Bay Area, I live in Tel Aviv, where I run Israel Writers Studio. My essays have appeared in the Baltimore Review, Under the Sun, Consequence, and elsewhere. A Pushcart Prize and Best American Essays nominee, I hold an MFA from Vermont College of Fine Arts and serve as an Assistant Editor for Brevity. When not at my desk, I am often on my yoga mat: practicing since 1995, teaching since 2003. Two unconventional books forthcoming... Places We Left Behind: a memoir-in-miniature (9/23) and Landed: A yogi's memoir in pieces & poses (10/24) by Vine Leaves Press.
