Anne Richey

Anne Richey taught at New York University for many years. When the din of the subway became too much, she retired and moved to the Catskills region in upstate NY. There she taught poetry for the Lifetime Learning Institute at Bard College, specializing in Dickinson, Whitman, and contemporary poetry, as well as in the life and works of Catskills naturalist John Burroughs. In 2018, she published her first book of poems, Church of the Robin's Ha-Ha: John Burroughs' "Natural Religion" and Other Poems. Anne now lives in Memphis TN.
