Old Town Clown

Tod Perry describes himself as a "small voice out of Cudjoe," and writes of "where I have lived for the past 50 years back and forth between Germany and Cudjoe Key."

He "studied language and literature at Cornell, the Writers Workshop at Iowa, and later taught at the University of Puerto Rico. After five years in New York, I left for Europe in 1970" and has continued "splitting his time" ever since.

"At Iowa I was the winner of a fiction writing prize, and recently came in second in the 2012 Robt Frost Poetry Contest," Perry continued. "My work has appeared in a number of magazines, periodicals and anthologies, including the New Yorker, Prairie Schooner, and elsewhere. Translations have also appeared in various anthologies."
