 |
Lois Parker Edstrom, a retired nurse, is the author of five collections of poetry. What Brings Us to Water won the 2010 Poetica Publishing Chapbook Award. What s To Be Done With Beauty received the Creative Justice Award in 2012. Night Beyond Black was published by MoonPath Press in 2016, and Glint, MoonPath Press, 2019. Road Signs and Hobo Marks is her third full-length book. She has received two Hackney National Literary Awards, the Outrider Press Grand Prize, and the Westmoreland Award. Her poems have appeared in literary journals such as Clackamas Literary Review, Floating Bridge Review, Rock & Sling, Mobius, and Adanna. Edstrom s work has received nominations for a Pushcart Prize and the Washington State Book Award. Three of her poems have been read by Garrison Keillor on The Writer s Almanac, and her poetry has been featured in American Life in Poetry. In 2016 Edstrom s career in nursing and her poetic passion coalesced when her poem, Choices We Make When We Are Too Young to Make Them, appeared in Poems in the Waiting Room, a publication furnished to hospitals and to doctors offices in New Zealand. Her poetry has been translated into Braille, and has also been adapted to dance by the Bellingham Repertory Dance Company. The natural beauty of Whidbey Island, where she lives with her husband, inspires much of her work. |
