Ken Victor moved to Canada from the States in 1990 after many summers spent guiding canoe trips in northwestern Ontario. Thirty-two years and many poems later he renounced his U.S. citizenship. A graduate of the writing program at Syracuse, Ken’s poetry has appeared in numerous journals in the U.S. and Canada, received a National Magazine Award, and won the Ruth and David Lampe Poetry Competition for his suite of poems on murdered journalists. His poetry collection, We Were Like Everyone Else, was a finalist for the Concordia First Book Prize. Ken now makes his home in the Gatineau hills of Quebec where he writes, takes long walks and appreciates his neighbors. Poems are forthcoming in the Queens Quarterly and Bellevue Literary Review.
