About the Artist

S.B. Merrow had a career as a flute maker, and for years worked with her hands—and her ears—on the instruments of professional musicians. Since returning to her first love, poetry, she has been published in journals such as Salamander, Nimrod International Journal, Gyroscope Review, and Free State Review. She has been a finalist several times for the Rash Award in Poetry and her first book, Unpacking the China, won the QuillsEdge Press 2016 chapbook competition. In 2020 her collection Everyone A Bell was published by Kelsay Books. She lives in Baltimore with her husband, non-fiction author Robert Kanigel.
