Diane Frank
ABOUT THE POET
Diane Frank is an award-winning poet and author of five books of poems, including Entering the Word Temple, The Winter Life of Shooting Stars and The All Night Yemenite Café. Her friends describe her as a harem of seven women in one very small body. She lives in San Francisco — where she dances, plays cello, and creates her life as an art form. Diane teaches at San Francisco State University, leads workshops for young writers as a Poet in the School, and directs the Blue Light Press On-line Poetry Workshop. She lived in Fairfield, Iowa, from 1989 to 2002 and taught poetry and scriptwriting workshops at Maharishi International University. She is also a documentary scriptwriter with expertise in Eastern and sacred art. Blackberries in the Dream House, her first novel, was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize. Her second novel will be published in 2010, and her website is www.dianefrank.net.
