Jeannine Savard

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jeannine Savard is a poet, born in the Adirondack Mountain Region of New York state in a hospital just above the waterfall beside the Cooper’s Caves. Her work involves an inner landscape that sometimes reflects that lush region of that country with its fir trees, lakes, waterfalls, and wildlife, as well as that more austere landscape of the southwest deserts where she has lived since the 1980s as an Associate Professor of English at Arizona State University.

Savard's poems also appear in Blackbird: an online journal of literature and the arts.

Savard has published several volumes of poetry, including:

• My Hand Upon Your Name (2005), Red Hen Press. ISBN 1-59709-009-3.
• Snow Water Cove (1998), University of Utah Press. ISBN 0-87480-291-1.
• Trumpeter (1993), Carnegie Mellon University Press. ISBN 0-88748-153-1.
