The Writer's Voice: Neal Snidow

Neal Snidow 

Neal Snidow speaks about – and reads from – his first published book, “Vista Del Mar: A Memoir of the Ordinary” (Counterpoint, 2016) He states that in the book’s prose and photos he is trying to bring back a place and time of importance to him – growing up in Southern California. In doing so, he strives to “evoke instead of document.” Snidow has been a public school teacher and a writer for many years. He earned a BA in English at the University of California, Riverside, and an MA at the University of Virginia, where he was a Danforth Fellow. He currently teaches, writes, and photographs in Magalia, CA
