CHERYL A. RICE
 My work, both poetry and prose, has appeared in AltDot Reader, ART TIMES, Bitterroot, Chronogram, The Country and Abroad, Home Planet News, Multitudes, Poetry Motel, Poets Gallery Press, Satori, S.M.T., The Temple/El Templo, Ulster Magazine, and The Woodstock Times, and online at halfmoonreview.com, poetrypoetry.com, and thehiddencity.com.
I am a Long Islander by birth, although I have made New York's Hudson Valley my home for more than twenty years. I am a member of Voices of the Valley, a poetry performance troupe, the Poetry Society of Woodstock, the Academy of American Poets, and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Worker. I have been featured at or organized open poetry mics from Albany to Middletown. I am the founder and host of the 'Sylvia Plath Bake-Off', held each year in Kingston, NY, perhaps the world's only combination open mic/baked goods competition. I was honored to be one of the many local poets featured at the first annual Woodstock Poetry Festival in August of 2001, and hosted an open mic during the 2002 edition.
I hold a B.S. in Secondary Education/English from the State University of New York, College at New Paltz, and completed a year of graduate work at the University at Albany. I have also had the pleasure of attending two poetry workshops at The Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, NY with former NYS Poet Laureate Sharon Olds.
