 Biographical Note

Ron Kolm is an American poet, activist, editor, and bookseller who as of 2019 was based in New York City. He worked at bookstores like Coliseum Books throughout the 1970s-1980s, where he began meeting and collaborating with influential Lower East Side authors and poets. He founded Low-Tech Press in 1980, and over the next ten years published works by notables such as Hal Sirowitz, Art Spiegelman, and Tuli Kupferberg. In 1985, he worked with Bart Plantenga, Mike Golden, and Peter Lamborn Wilson to found The Unbearables, a group of writers who were instrumental in establishing the “Downtown” scene of New York’s 1980s. He has written five books, collaborated on a novel with Jim Feast, and has contributed work to over a dozen fiction and poetry anthologies since 1989. One of Kolm’s most important contributions to the avant garde poetry and prose movement was the extensive networks and archives he established between his peers and fellow collaborators.
