David S. Cho is the author of two CavanKerry Press books “Night Sessions” (2011) and “A Half-Life” (2022). His work is narrative and lyrical and leaves the reader wanting to dive into the world of each poem. from “Existential Poem no. 2” Can sound transgress From the mouth of a crying Baby to the deaf ears of a father’s deep slumber? Does a physicist consider wavelengths, its particle matter shooting through the walls of air, sound? Is the muted silence of such deafness truly “dumb”? Can a father fear the death of his son, when that son has not yet come into existence? And upon that moment when a son gazes into the face of his progenitor can a son fear for his father’s life… David S. Cho was born and raised in the Chicago area, along with his brother and extended family, the proud children of Korean immigrants in the early 70s. He holds a BA from the University of Illinois, MFA, and MA from Purdue University, an MAT and Ph.D. from the University of Washington, and has taught in West Lafayette and Crawfordsville, Indiana; Chicago; and Seattle and Tacoma, Washington. He now serves as the director of the Office of Multicultural Development at Wheaton College. #AAPImonth #AAPIAuthors #poetry #poetrybook #poetrylovers #publishing #nonprofit #cavankerrypress

Joseph O. Legaspi is the author of two CavanKerry Press poetry books “Imago” (2007) and “Threshold” (2017). His work is often described as full of voluptuous detail, exuberant, and triumphant. from: “Night” When in love I melt into yellow, blend in with every light to become the most luminous apparition. You’ve come disguised, hair upswept, eyes two shades murkier than petroleum, a face I’ve never seen but know in-the-gut-of-me, I seem born from it, but in mirroring honesty I often fancy you are someone else, I prefer this, realizing how lacking you are, I can be happy with a stranger moon. Joseph O. Legaspi, a Fulbright and New York Foundation for the Arts fellow, is the author of a previous collection, Imago (CavanKerry Press and University of Santo Tomas Press), and two chapbooks: Aviary, Bestiary and Subways. His poems have appeared in the Academy of American Poets’ Poem-a-Day, jubilat, Orion, Painted Bride Quarterly, and Salt Hill. He is the cofounder of Kundiman, a nonprofit organization serving Asian American writers. He lives in Queens, New York, with his husband. #AAPImonth #AAPIAuthors #poetry #poetrybook #poetrylovers #publishing #nonprofit #cavankerrypress
