Kate Bernadette Benedict has traveled a great deal…around New York City. She has dipped a toe into France and England and gone total immersion in Ireland and Maine. Her travels in what James Hillman called the Dream and the Underworld have been the most transformative. Her poems have appeared in countless literary magazines and anthologies and she is the author of two full-length poetry collections. Her highly esteemed online poetry journals are now closed, but permanently archived and worth a read: Bumbershoot, Tilt-a-Whirl, and Umbrella.
