Zev Torres’ most recent chapbook, Revision, was published January 2010. His earlier books are In Celebration of Hope and Change and The Beginning of Time. In addition to being the featured reader at numerous venues through New York City (including Otto’s Shrunken Head), Zev has also performed his poetry at the JVC Jazz Festival and the Make Music New York Festival. Zev blogs at http://zevtorres.wordpress.com/

Charles Butler co-hosts Literary Tuesdays at Perch Cafe in Brooklyn. Charles participated in Emilie Glen's legendary downtown readings in the 1970’s, and read at the original Nyorican Poets' Café. Re-emerging as a performance poet in 2006, he continues to share the inside story of the streets, through many views and voices. Butler’s work has appeared in Abestos, Brownstone Poets Anthology, Rogue Scholars, among other places.
