Carol Dine, Massachusetts College of Art & Design
Carol Dine is the author of four books of poetry and a memoir. About her memoir, Places in the Bone (Rutgers University, 1003), Norman Mailer wrote: “(Dine’s) prose is a poet’s prose, often beautiful . . . (the book) reads like a skier on a slalom course full of jigs, jags, and quick jumps that capture . . . the fine surprises and sudden disasters in her life.” In 2014, she published Orange Night, her poems accompanied by the images of acclaimed artist and Holocaust survivor, Samuel Bak (Pucker Art Publications, distributed by Syracuse University). Her work appears in the literary magazines Aesthetica Creative Arts Annual, UK, Alehouse, Blue Mesa Review, Boulevard, Bitter Oleander, Lilith, and Salamander; and anthologies including “Poems Against War: Bending Toward Justice.” Dine has been a resident at the MacDowell Colony, Yaddo, Ragdale, and the Wurlitzer Foundation. She received a grant from the Money for Women/Barbara Deming Memorial Fund and the Sword of Hope Award from the American Cancer Society. She teaches at Massachusetts College of Art & Design, Boston.
