8888Litany Sung At Hell's Gate Bryce Milligan is a jack-of-all-crafts, having been at one time or another
a folksinger, luthier, carpenter, university instructor, bookstore manager,
grants writer, rare books bibliographer, political/literary organizer,
magazine editor, literary agent, newspaper columnist, poet, playwright,
novelist, song writer, and freelance writer. When he is not doing anything
else, he carves stones. Milligan studied Old Irish and Anglo Saxon for
his M.A. from the University of Texas at Austin, which was "a way
of getting at (his) poetic roots." Milligan founded Pax: A Journal
for Peace through Culture and later, Vortex: A Critical Review, which
he still edits. He also founded and co-directed for three years what is
now the San Antonio Inter-American Bookfair. For the last several years
he has been the book critic for the San Antonio Light. Milligan is the
author of three novels and several plays and stories for children and
young adults, anactivity which publisher/editor Robert Bonazzi says is
"probably a more radical endeavor than his poetry, since he is influencing
the next generation of readers." |
