Autorenporträt
Renee Norman, Ph.D., is an award-winning poet, a writer, and a teacher. She completed her doctorate at the University of British Columbia in 1999. Her dissertation, House of Mirrors: Performing Autobiograph(icall)y in Language/Education, focuses on women's autobiographical writings, including her own, and on autobiography in language/literacy education, and was published as a book by Peter Lang Publishers, New York, in 2001. Renee's poetry, stories, and articles have been published widely in many literary and academic journals, such as Canadian Woman Studies/les cahiers de la femme, Prairie Journal, Freefall, and English Quarterly, as well as in anthologies and newspapers. She has received poetry and nonfiction prizes for her work. Renee is one of twelve Canadian woman poets whose poetry is featured in The Missing Line, published by Inanna Publications in 2004. Currently Renee teaches in a Fine Arts program in Vancouver School District. She lives in Coquitlam, BC, with her three daughters Sara, Rebecca, and Erin, and her husband Don. ----- Carl Leggo lived, taught, and wrote in the Vancouver area until his death in 2019. Drawing from his memories of an adventurous childhood in Newfoundland, he wove humorous, heartfelt tales into poetic ruminations that formed the first of his many published books. After studying in various cities across Canada and earning his PhD, Carl moved to Vancouver in 1990 and began a decades-long career in the Faculty of Education at UBC, where he left a lasting impression on students and colleagues alike. When he passed away, a memorial held at UBC drew a crowd of people whose lives he had so meaningfully touched.More than anything, Carl was a husband, father, and grandfather whose family still misses and thinks of him every day. His profound presence and creative spirit live on in his writing.
