Susan Rich grew up in Boston, Massachusetts but has since become a confirmed Seattlite. When she read in Bosnia and Slovenia the audience burst into laughter at the word "Seattlite" in a poem, mistaking it for satellite. Later, someone explained to Susan that this was funny because Americans come from out of space. Interview with Elizabeth Glixman at http://www.eclectica.org/v9n4/glixman...Rich teaches at Highline Community College outside Seattle, WA where she is also a co-editor at Floating Bridge Press and Board Member of Whit Press. She has worked in Bosnia, Niger, Gaza, and South Africa on behalf of human rights.
