Burt Rashbaum has been writing since he was around 10 years old, first writing short stories in fourth grade. He cites his middle school English teacher, who exposed him to e.e. cummings, as the person who first sparked his interest in poetry.
He moved to Boulder in 1976, subscribing to a writers’ magazine to learn tips and publishing his first poem in the yearly catalog from the Free School. He feels he’s gotten better at the game of submissions over the last few years, and since 2020, he’s published dozens of poems online and in print.
