Jennifer Ferraro is a poet, artist, and translator of Quarreling with God: Mystic Rebel Poems of the Dervishes of Turkey (White Cloud Press), and a collection of her own illustrated poems, Divine Nostalgia . She has lead workshops and has presented poetry performances combining poetry, dance and music in innovative ways. For four years she toured with a Turkish Sufi music ensemble performing percussion, dance and sacred poetry all over the world.
