She thought him daft but appreciated how he let her sit on the wide window ledge rather than be confined to an ancient wooden desk; she never cut his class. A decade later, Yael found poetry, which helped her exteriorize the legacy of being the daughter of Holocaust survivors. Now in her 50s, she feels ready to heed elders’ advice. Yael teaches yoga and writing. Her work has appeared in Lilith, Beltway Poetry Journal, and NPR’s Latino USA.

Although she has loved poetry since childhood, her college scholarship opportunities were in mathematics and that became her field. As time permitted, poetry again became part of her life and many of her poems share her support for women’s issues and climate concerns. In the spring of 2019, “Give HER Your Support,” a collection of her feminist math poems, appeared in Math Horizons, a publication of the Mathematical Association of America. Her most recent poetry activity has been online, integrating the arts and scientific studies—enlarging STEM to STEAM—and found in her blog, Intersections—Poetry with Mathematics at https://poetrywithmathematics.blogspot.com. https://www.thedeepbeautybook.com/writers/rick-black monthly 0.5 2020-03-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7f9aa5297b2c1ec26864f5/1569328970628-H8D734JXFDWBT57AGR35/Rick+Black+-+head+shot+2+x+3.jpg Writers - Rick Black: Beauty and Violence in Israel Rick Black is the author of Peace and War: A Collection of Haiku from Israel and shares his haiku on the website, www.israelhaiku.com.

They are thoughtful, intense, and lovely -- everything that you might want from writing. I found them to be soothing, a sort of balm against the malevolence that is the year 2020. Recommended.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7f9aa5297b2c1ec26864f5/1607009208536-D2LQ4627Z5331JQ2QW42/DB_Pushcart_authors.png Media - 3 Essayists Nominated for Pushcart Prize Three of our Deep Beauty writers have been nominated for The Pushcart Prize: Sonya Huber, for her essay “Magpies of Industry”; Kim Dana Kupperman, for “Lilacs at Auschwitz”; and Deborah Ziska, for “American Protest.” The prize honors poems, stories, and essays nominated by editors and published by small presses and journals worldwide.

You will recognize the experiences and the observations they share — the beauty hidden in a messy place, in small things like socks, in a protest, in the last months of a life, in a city. Especially meaningful to us was the chapter on holy spaces. In “Lilacs at Auschwitz,” Kim Dana Kupperman writes about feeling safe as Hasidim men prayed in the galley on the airplane as she flew to Europe. In “My Varanasi Lakshmi,” Katie O'Connell describes encountering “one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen . . . an in-the-flesh version of the Hindu goddess who represents abundance and prosperity”; she was selling malas, bangles, necklaces, and bracelets to the tourists. In “God Is Beautiful and Loves Beauty,” Asna Husin, a Muslim, reflects upon a hadith and how she has tried to manifest divine beauty in her life.” To read the entire review, click here. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d7f9aa5297b2c1ec26864f5/1602434700621-893N91G9MF2NGQOUFLJW/DeepBeauty-TitleSlide.jpg Media - ‘A great experience’ On Oct. 1, 2020, co-editors Rosemary Winslow and Catherine Lee joined seven Deep Beauty essayists for a Zoom reading hosted by the Arts Club of Washington.
