About

Jim Seegert's Biography

I have enjoyed a long career in both network television graphics and as designer and photographer in Cleveland and NYC. I began writing poetry and short form prose as another creative outlet. Following my retirement to the Hudson Valley in 2021, I've focused most of my creative energy on writing and performing.
​
I'm a regular on the Calling All Poets (CAPs) International Zoom events, a live performer (my roots) at Lit/Lit at the Howland Cultural Center in Beacon, NY and a member of The Hudson Valley Writers Workshop. The relative easy access to NYC offers additional opportunities to continue to read there as well.
​
Fresh Light is my first book, a curated collection of monographs venerating song, literature and lifestyles from the last 50 years. You'll wander into some of these tales as if you are experiencing them firsthand...in real time.
​
Enjoy!
