Native to no particular place, Wendy Mannis Scher was born in Boston and spent her childhood and adolescence along the coastlines of Wales, Delaware, North Carolina, New Jersey and Maryland before moving to the landlocked heights of Colorado over 28 years ago. She has a BA in English Literature from Smith College, a BS in Pharmacy from the University of Colorado’s Health Sciences Center and an MFA in Creative Writing from the Low Residency program at the University of Alaska/Anchorage. Having worked outside the home since age 9, her resume is chockful of jobs that keep the bill collectors at bay as she supports her addiction to writing poems. Currently, Wendy lives with her family in a canyon in Colorado’s Front Range.
