In Spreading the Light Barbara Sherman weaves a world where rocks are full of grace and everything that grows and breathes has something to teach us. Spirits appear in the canyons and clouds, and each day we are alive is both gift and offering. Light spreads from the tender body of snail In the opening poem and transforms slowly across the pages, leaving us with the glow of a flower that blooms in the dark. Part memoir and part nature journal, Sherman's poetry is a meditation on living in harmony with our natural world.

Sherman, Barbara: - Barbara Sherman has been dancing with poetry ever since her childhood days in rural Pennsylvania. In her teens she discovered a book of Robert Frost's poems on her mother's bookshelf and fell in love. As a young adult, Barbara taught high school English and yoga in Connecticut and raised two children. After moving to Arizona in 1999, Barbara became a docent at The University of Arizona Poetry Center and an avid reader of contemporary verse. As a writer, she finds inspiration in the work of Mary Oliver, W. S. Merwin and Ross Gay. She is also a docent at Tohono Chul Park in Tucson, where she developed interpretive walks pairing poems with plants. These walks highlight the resilience of plants living in a hot, dry climate and what they have to say to us in this changing world. She also facilitates poetry discussions in the Tohono Chul Art Gallery highlighting poems that illuminate the theme of each exhibition. Barbara holds a Master's Degree from Wesleyan University, Middletown, Connecticut and considers herself a life-long learner. She resides in Oro Valley, Arizona with her husband Ted and two devoted cats.
