It was not until 1997 that he came to verse when he enrolled in his college classmate William Matthews?s graduate poetry workshop at City College in New York City. Since then he has worked on his poetry with Judith Baumel, Molly Peacock, Kate Light, Phillis Levin and Charles Martin.
?Many of these poems are about walking around in New York and a few other places,? says Schenck, ?but they?re mainly about walking around in your own mind and paying attention to what you find there?in memory and in the way you respond when your surroundings speak to you.?
?Poetry is a way of taking notes?of noticing. And then of choosing your words as carefully as you can to describe what you?ve seen and heard.?
During the daytime, Schenck works as a copywriter and creative director in magazine publishing.ver menos
