This is Stephen Kopel's Featured Poet Segment in conjunction with the San Francisco open Mic Poetry Podcast TV Show with John Rhodes and Clara Hsu. Sandra Anfang is the featured poet. Celebrate the spoken word.
Sandra Anfang is a teacher, poet and visual artist who recently moved to Petaluma. She is the author of three poetry collections: A chapbook, Fig Leaf Optional (1983), Crown of Thorns (2011), and most recently, String Theory (2012). She has been published numerous times online in The Shine Journal, and has won several writing contests and awards. Most recently, Sande featured at Bird and Beckett in San Francisco.
Sande has been writing since her junior year in high school, when a respected English teacher offered her a first honest critique, cementing a lifelong passion for writing. Sande is inspired by the natural world, witnessing youthful ardor in the arts, raptors, and random bits of conversation culled from public transportation. To write, for her, is to breathe.
She is also one of the "River poets" of Petaluma
