Keith MoulKeith Moul was born 3 months after VJ Day. His father, Ralph, served on aircraft carriers in the Pacific in World War II, and Keith developed a strong interest in U.S. history growing up at that particular time. He's always writing his poems, taking his pictures and studying reliable historians to understand his times. Keith was born in St. Louis and is a life-long Cardinal fan. Baseball fills capably the long, hot, humid evenings in St. Louis. Not fast enough for baseball, he turned to schooling in literature: the U. of Missouri, AB '67; Western Washington State U., MA '71; 1972 at the U. of Iowa where he studied Old English; and U. of South Carolina, PhD '74. He married Sylvia in 1967 and they remain very happily together. His daughter, Ianthe, was born in 1969 and has blossomed into a compelling artist in paints. But most of Keith's time since leaving school has been spent in the commercial insurance world, employed by various companies in underwriting, marketing and underwriting management. He was retired in 2001 due to company mergers, a destructive practice among financial businesses. But the administrative part of poetry has become significantly more possible with the advent of computers and the internet. This book was submitted, reviewed and accepted by Finishing Line Press as an electronic transaction; so was The Future as a Picnic Lunch, which FLP published in 2015. All this amounts to an interesting life of pleasant retirement. Read More Read Less
