His poems and essays have appeared in The Los Angeles Times, The New York Times, Esquire, Newsweek, Harpers, The New Yorker, The Paris Review, The London Review of Books, and other publications. Perhaps the most celebrated funeral home director in America, Lynch has been called a cross between Garrison Keillor and poet William Butler Yeats. He reminds us not only of how we die, but also of how we live. Lynch is the second reader of the Fall 2000 Writing Alliance Readers Series sponsored by The Writing Alliance, a non-profit organization formed to promote collaboration and celebrations of the written and spoken word in northwest Michigan.
Admission is free.
Lynch will also be a featured writer in residence at the first annual Bear River Writers Conference at Camp Daggett, May 31 to June 4, 2001.
