Jeff Crandall received a BA in Creative Writing with an emphasis on poetry from the University of Washington in Seattle. His poetry continues to be published in journals across the country, including Atlanta Review, Beloit Poetry Journal, Bloom, and North American Review. In 2019 he won 2nd place in the national Rhysling Awards for science fiction and fantasy poetry. His award-winning first book of poetry, The Grief Pool, is published by Firestorm Press. While working for Pilchuck Glass School, Jeff began combining poetry with glass. His “Poet’s Bottles” and “Spheres of Influence” series have since been exhibited across North America and in Europe. Now retired from art making, he focuses his time on his writing, helping local non-profit organizations, and enjoying his lakefront home with his amazing husband, dog, and two cats.
