Lynn Patrick Smith, a singer/songwriter as well as a poet, has published two books with Fireweed Press. He lives in Madison and is a member of the Mind’s Eye Radio Collective. Through Mind’s Eye, his work airs through the radio station WORT locally, and by satellite and shortwave further afield. Producer Kelly J. Warren says Smith “makes aware the nuances and simplicities of everydayness.” Critic Richard Roe sees Smith’s work as social commentary with a “droll wit at work.”
