Alex Phillips was born in Concord, Massachusetts, in 1977. He is the
poet in residence at Fort Juniper in Cushman Village, Amherst, and is
an assistant professor at the University of Massachusetts. He is the author of Crash Dome (Factory Hollow Press, 2010)

On Crash Dome: "That from the twenty-six letters of our alphabet this book could be born is a miracle, a heartbreakingly glorious one that demands it be read, and talked about, and marveled over, and, like all true miracles, doesn't give a damn if it isn't."--Mary Ruefle
