Peggy Heinrich began exploring haiku thirty-five years ago. Her haiku have appeared in almost every haiku journal here and in Japan, from the early days of Dragonfly to the latest website and in many anthologies, including three Red Moon anthologies, The New Haiku by Snapshot Press, the Basho Festival Haiku Anthology and How to Haiku by Bruce Ross. In 2009, she was awarded Top Prize in the First Yamadera Basho Memorial Museum English Haiku Contest for her haiku: after many months / spreading his ashes . . . / the lilacs he planted Other awards include the Haiku Society of America’s Henderson Award and the Robert Spiess Memorial Award. Also, she was a runner-up in the giant 1988 Japan Air Lines contest and a prize-winner in Ashiya’s International Haiku Festival. Her mini-chapbook, A Patch of Grass, was published by High/Coo Press in 1984. Eight of her haiku were selected for Haiga-Haiku, a book of etchings produced by artist Barbara Gray. Besides haiku, Peggy enjoys writing tanka and longer poems, many of which were published in her 2006 collection, A Minefield of Etceteras. A former Northeasterner, Peggy resides in Santa Cruz, California, where she divides her time between writing and her practice as a Reconnective Healer. Email: heinrich01@gmail.com
