About Jean Pedrick:

Jean Pedrick Kefferstan, poet, co-founder of the Alice James Poetry Cooperative (later Alice James Books), and founder of Skimmilk Farm summer poetry workshops in Brentwood, New Hampshire, was born in Salem, Massachusetts in 1922. She attended Wheaton College and worked as an editorial assistant at Houghton Mifflin in Boston before marrying Dr. Frank J. Kefferstan in 1948.

After living for two years in Panama, the couple moved back to Boston and lived at 48 Mt. Vernon St. on Beacon Hill. For the next twenty years, Pedrick published poems in magazines such as Atlantic Monthly, The New Yorker, Yankee, and The Paris Review and then in 1973 co-founded the Alice James Poetry Cooperative, where she published a number of poetry books.

Workshops at Skimmilk Farm, her summer home, began in 1974, when Pedrick realized that two of her colleagues at Alice James Books were also her summer neighbors, and for more than thirty years participants thrived in an atmosphere which respected the craft of the writer, the integrity of the work, and the individual. The story of Skimmilk is told in Ken Browne’s documentary, Mondays at Skimmilk: 30 years of writers at work, broadcast on New Hampshire Public Television in April 2007.

Pedrick taught poetry at Northeastern University and the Boston Center for Adult Education and wrote for The Beacon Hill News. She was also one of three co-founders of Rowan Tree Press. In 1993 she won the Bruce Rossley Literary Award, created by 96 Inc., which recognizes the under-recognized literary voices of the City of Boston. She died on July 31, 2006 in Exeter, New Hampshire.

Jean Pedrick published four books of poetry and a novel, The Fascination.
