The Write Thing Reading Series at Medaille College will present poet Rebecca Maslen ‘00 on Thursday, April 17 at 7 p.m. in the Huber Hall Library on Medaille’s Main Campus. This event is free and open to the public; refreshments are occasionally served.

She earned a master of fine arts in creative writing from Rosemont College in Rosemont, Penn. Her work has been published in Parlor Journal and Flashquake, with her poem “rock me amadeus,” earning a Pushcart Prize nomination.
A native of Buffalo, she currently lives in Philadelphia, and travels with her husband, a professional wrestling promoter, to shows in Boston, Chicago and abroad. She teaches technology at a community center in south Philadelphia, and is currently writing a novel set in the independent wrestling scene.
The Write Thing Reading Series is the premiere visiting artist series among Buffalo’s educational institutions. Each semester, Medaille invites from 3 to 6 published poets and fiction writers to campus for readings. Students at Medaille have the unique chance to meet up close and personal with Pulitzer Prize winners, National Book Award finalists, Guggenheim Fellowship recipients, and some of the most renowned international writers of today - as well as up-and-coming younger writers.
