About the author

I am a graduate in English literature and language from Oxford and in religious studies from NYU. In 1999, I co-founded Lantern Books, a publisher of books on vegetarianism, animal advocacy, spirituality, and natural healing. It is now Lantern Publishing & Media, a non-profit publishing company.

I founded a monthly magazine Satya, and was its editor for five and a half years. In 1999, I published The Way of Compassion: Vegetarianism, Environmentalism, Animal Advocacy, and Social Justice. In 2003, I published my novel Nicaea: A Book of Correspondences with Lindisfarne Books.

I'm the co-author of Right Off the Bat: Baseball, Cricket, Literature, and Life; The Polar Bear in the Zoo: A Speculation; The Elephants in the Room: An Excavation; and (with Ruth Heidrich), Lifelong Running. Most recently, I have authored a satirical epic-poem, The Trumpiad, and the poem The Animals Are Leaving Us (with photos by Jo-Anne McArthur). I am also the librettist for a song-cycle (music by Mihoko Suzuki) called And the Hummingbird Says.
