Air Kissing on Mars Tapa blanda - 2010

Kim (Freilich) Dower grew up in New York on the Upper West Side of Manhattan and received a BFA in Creative Writing from Emerson College in Boston.

Upon graduating, Kim stayed at Emerson where she taught Introduction to Creative Writing: Poetry for two years before moving to Los Angeles where she pursued other writing projects and began her own literary publicity company called Kim-from-L.A., the name for which she has become famous in the world of book publishing.

A few years ago, "like magic, like a dream," poetry re-entered her life and the poems have been rushing out as if a 25 year dam had broken, and she's been writing three or more poems a week.

Kim's work has appeared in Ploughshares, The Seneca Review, and in the on-line video magazine, Guerilla Reads.

She lives with her family in West Hollywood, California.
