   Roseann Lloyd grew up in Springfield, Missouri and currently lives in Minneapolis, Minnesota. She was educated at the University of Minnesota and completed her B.S. and M.A. degrees there. Later, she lived in the Pacific Northwest and studied at the Poetry Workshop at the University of Montana with Richard Hugo, Madeline DeFrees, and Tess Gallagher. After her studies there she returned to Minnesota and published her first book, Tap Dancing for Big Mom, in 1986. She continued to write poetry, as well as taking on editing, nonfiction, and translation projects. Along the way, she received fellowships and awards for her poetry and her editing; she has published a total of eight books, which are listed after this biography. Lloyd has given readings of her work at the Loft, at local coffeehouses, and at independent bookstores such as the Hungry Mind (now Ruminator) Bookstore in St. Paul, Orr Books in Minneapolis, Elliot Bay Books in Seattle, Annie's in Spokane.
   
   Lloyd's latest book of poetry is Because of the Light. Poems on this home page from the new manuscript are titled: "Natt og Dag; Return to Norway after 25 Years," "Winter Light," "You Don't Have to," "In the Country in Love with Color," "I Fell in Love with the Tropics,"and "Indigo."
   
   Lloyd currently lives in Minneapolis and holds adjunct teaching positions: at the University of St Thomas, the Hamline MFA/MALS graduate program, in the Master of Liberal Studies program at the University of Minnesota. She has served as the Poetry Editor of the Water~Stone Review Every winter, she leads cold northerners to a poetry class in Antigua, Guatemala.
   
   Lloyd has also worked in community programs: For the last three years she has curated the reading series at the Blue Moon Coffee Cafe, sponsored by S.A.S.E.-The Write Place; she has taught poetry classes at a treatment center for adolescents and at the Sexual Violence Center, a center for both women and men who have experienced sexual assault. Some of her teaching strategies for therapeutic writing classes are included in her book JourneyNotes: Writing for Recovery and Spiritual Growth . Among Lloyd's community projects, the one that has perhaps reached the most people is the "Silent Witness Memorial," a traveling exhibit in honor of Minnesota women murdered by their partners in 1991. This public arts project was created by a group of artists and writers and has inspired similar projects in the United States and other countries.
