Bio

After being active as a writer and writing teacher for some years, B. Morrison set writing aside to work, first as a teacher in urban public schools and then as a systems engineer specializing in communications networks and information security. After 15 years of silence, she was able to take up writing again with a renewed commitment. Her recent book of poems Here at Least came out of that period of transformation when she stood on the threshold of a new life. She has also completed a memoir and has a technical book coming out in 2009.

Her work has recently won prizes from the Society of Southwestern Authors, the National League of American Pen Women, and the Maryland Writers’ Association.
