About Priscilla Orr

I am the author of two poetry collections Jugglers & Tides and Losing the Horizon, published by Hannacroix Creek Books.

A fellowship recipient from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts and a residency from Yaddo are among the honors I've received. Thrice-nominated for a Pushcart Prize, my poems have appeared in BOAAT, Tiferet, and other journals.

I am a poet for the Geraldine R. Dodge Poetry Program and the founding Director of the Betty June Silconas Poetry Center, as well as the founding Editor of the Stillwater Review.

A Professor of English (retired) at Sussex County Community College, I continue to teach literature and writing.

I live in Hamburg, New Jersey.
