CAConrad is the son of white trash asphyxiation whose childhood included selling cut flowers along the highway for his mother and helping her shoplift. He is the author of Deviant Propulsion (Soft Skull Press, 2006), (Soma)tic Midge (FAUX Press, 2008), The Book of Frank (Chax Press, 2008), The Advanced Elvis Course (Soft Skull, 2009), and a collaboration with poet Frank Sherlock titled THE CITY REAL & IMAGINED: Philadelphia Poems (Factory School Press, 2009). He invites you to visit him online at www.CAConrad.blogspot.com. Conrad is the winner of the 2009 Gil Ott Book Award, co-founder of Philly Sound (http://phillysound.blogspot.com/) and a co-founder of the PACE project, a Philadelphia-based group which organizes poets to read their poems aloud on street corners to passersby.
