Join us for a Live Chat with L.A. poet, Jerry Garcia, Wednesday 11/16 at 7pm PST.

We’ll be chatting about his writing journey and his latest book, Trumpets in the Sky

Trumpets in the Sky
(Moontide Press 2022)


”…a collection of poems that point to the universe while proclaiming the complexities of living on planet earth. These poems are full of astonishment, absurdity, reverence, and social science. Some are surreal, some are staid, all are sincere.”

Jerry Garcia is a poet, photographer, and filmmaker from Los Angeles, California. His poetry has been seen in Wide Awake: Poets of Los Angeles and Beyond, The Chiron Review, Coiled Serpent Anthology, and Voices from Leimert Park Redux, among others. He has been nominated for a Pushcart Prize and has published three books of poetry: Trumpets in the Sky, On Summer Solstice Road, and the chapbook Hitchhiking With the Guilty. He has been a producer and editor of television commercials, documentaries, and motion picture previews. Jerry lives in Southern California with his wife Becky and their poetic dog, Japhy.
