I was born in San Francisco in 1943 and was educated at University of California, (B A), and did graduate work at San Francisco State University. I wrote poetry for several years in the 80s and was published in poetry journals Blue Unicorn, Encore Penn State Poetry Journal.
I also won several awards, including the Ina Coolbrith Award. I was a member of the American Poetry Society. I am just recently resuming my interest in poetry writing after a lapse of several years. I live with my husband and son in Kensington, CA, and work as a tax consultant.
Jeanne Wagner is the 1998 winner of the poetry fellowship competition sponsored by Writers at Work in Park City, Ut. The $1,500 first place award includes publication in Quarterly West, a featured reading at the conference, and tuition for the 1998 writers' conference. Congratulations Jeanne!
