Background

I am the author of A Poetry Precise and Free: Selected Madrigals of Guarini (University of Michigan Press), containing 150 of my translations of the poems of Giovanni Battista Guarini, used as texts for madrigals by Monteverdi and many others.

I am also a choral singer, currently singing with Tactus SF.
