Description
Amy Losak spent most of her life in Queens, New York, and now
lives in New Jersey. She is a healthcare public relations consultant.
Her mother, Sydell Rosenberg, was a teacher and published writer,
especially poetry-primarily haiku and related forms. Syd was a
charter member of the Haiku Society of America in 1968. Amy is a
member today.
Syd, who died in 1996, contributed to the literary life of her home
borough and New York City. Her "city haiku" and other poems were
published in leading journals, classic anthologies (such as The Haiku
Anthology and The Haiku Handbook: How to Write, Share, and
Teach Haiku), and other media dedicated to this luminous form. In
1994, Syd's senryu was featured in the New York public arts project,
Haiku on 42nd Street, in which old theater marquees in Times Square
were transformed into "frames" for short poems.
