Peggy Trojan
Winner, First Place, Eye On Life Poetry Contest 2011-2012
Peggy Trojan and her husband built their own home near a trout stream in the north Wisconsin woods after they retired from teaching. Although she has written for years, most of her poems were saved in a drawer. After enrolling in a poetry writing class when she was seventy-six, with the intent of polishing a few to put into a small book for her family, she published her first poem at seventy-seven. She writes of family, her surroundings and her thoughts about life.
She has received awards for her poetry and has been published in Wisconsin Fellowship calendars, Dust and Fire, Talking Stick, Finnish American Reporter, Echoes, Wilda Morris Poetry Challenges, Migrations, Poetry and Prose for Life’s Transitions, and soon, Verse Wisconsin, and Verse and Vision 2012. She is a member of Wisconsin Fellowship of Poets.
