About The Greenfield Review PRESS & LITERARY CENTER
Our Story
- Greenfield Review was founded by Joseph and Carol Bruchac. It published The Greenfield Review, a cross-cultural magazine with a focus on poetry and storytelling, beginning in 1970. Since then, the press has been a home for a great diversity of voices. Greenfield Review, a 501(c)(3) Nonprofit, has published over 150 multicultural books and anthologies of contemporary poetry and fiction, including Words from the House of the Dead: An Anthology of Prison Writings from Soledad, Breaking Silence: Asian American Authors (winner of an American Book Award) and Returning the Gift.
- In addition, our imprint Bowman Books has published books with a focus on northeast traditions. We coordinated the North American Native Authors Distribution Project. The Ndakinna Education Center, the Saratoga Native American Festival, the Western Abenaki language website, and the new GENERATIONS blog are other mission driven projects of the Greenfield Review.
Our Mission
- Giving voice to marginalized peoples, by amplifying their wisdom, stories, and experiences. We were a multicultural publisher before the term gained wide currency, although we define "multicultural" as inclusive of all cultures not just those neglected in the past.
