Her work has appeared in three editions of The Best American Poetry, and has been widely anthologized. A teacher at Rochester Institutute of Technology, she has served on the board of directors of VIDA; and holds a BA from Bard College, an MFA from New School University, and a PhD from the University of Georgia.

Edward A.

About his latest collection, 10048 (Finishing Line Press), Alan Catlin writes, “What John Hersey did with Hiroshima, Edward A. Dougherty has done for 9/11. 10048 is an elegy for the World Trade Center, the best kind of poetic history: one which is unvarnished, accurate, compassionate, and poignant.” Visit https://edwarddougherty.wordpress.com/.
