Bob Nelson
Hello, my name is Bob Nelson. I am a writer, poet and organizer. Here are some of my favorite accomplishments:In 1994, I co-founded Anthology magazine with writer J.A. Giunta. The magazine would run for ten years and print a wide variety of up and coming poets and writers. Also in 1994, I started the Essenzaslam Poetry Slam, which runs to this day as the longest running poetry slam in the Southwest. In 1999, I founded Spokenworld.com, a pioneer internet readio station focusing on spoken word programming. In 2001, writer Sharon Skinnerand I founded Anthology as a 501c3 nonprofit organization.
Currently, I am the chief of Brick Cave Media, a media microglomerate (my home office) for the crazy ideas that my friends and I dream up. In 2006, i released my second spoken word CD, Boboratory, that is available through the Brick Cave Media Store as either a physical CD or downloadable MP3's. I serve on the Board of Anthology, and still wander around the local poetry scene.
