David began writing poetry during college in the classes of poet Susan Ludvigson in South Carolina. He's written several musical plays for children which were presented in Unitarian Churches in Colorado and around the country. He was recognized for lyrics and music in Silliman Anthem Competitions in 2014 and 2018. He wrote the lyrics and melodies for the "Ruach Song Cycle," for choir and chamber orchestra, performed in Colorado in 2021. He was the Artistic Director of the Smithtonians Handbell Ensemble in Littleton, CO from 2019 to 2024. Several of his poems were set to music by composer Wally Kleuker in "Journeys," a Cantata for choir and handbells. He has degrees in Music, Religion/Philosophy, and a license in Massage Therapy. He played flute, harp and sang at the bedside of the sick for two decades up until the pandemic. He resides in Washington D.C. |
Your support gives me vital inspiration as I write for thirty days this month.
Tupelo Press provides the canvas; I bring my words, accompanied by a cohort of fine poets, writing thirty poems in thirty days, all ours to edit and submit as we wish. 30/30 poems have been taken by over 200 journals and featured in over 40 published chapbooks, all so Tupelo Press can keep publishing exquisite and diverse voices that might never be heard otherwise.
Every dollar gives me confidence to write more, and helps the press place more poems in gorgeous books. Help me to help this distinguished press. Give today!
