JEREMY HARMAN (Canada/Ireland)
Dublin-born Jeremy Harman spent his childhood in Madison, Wisconsin, returning at the age of 11 to Ireland where he attended Clongowes Wood College, Clane, Co. Kildare and then studied medicine at University College Dublin. After graduate work in molecular biology at McGill University in Canada, he worked for a time in a cottage hospital in St. Lawrence, Newfoundland. From there he moved to Toronto where he completed a residency in psychiatry, a field in which he has since worked for thirty years, mostly with children and adolescents. He is also a qualified psychoanalyst.
Harman’s poems and translations have appeared in Canada, Ireland, Australia and the United States. Interested in the visual world captured through the lens, his photographs often reveal a correspondence to his poems. |
