Bin Ramke has published seven books of poems, has been editing a book series for the University of Georgia Press for sixteen years, and is currently editor of the Denver Quarterly. He teaches at the University of Denver. His most recent book is Airs, Waters, Places (scheduled for fall 2001 from University of Iowa Press); it takes its title from an ancient medical text, and it attempts to understand the possibility of an expanded notion of "health" in an often disconnected, disconnecting, dysfunctional social order.
