RONALD LIEBER: JAPANESE, JEWISH, AMERICAN AWARD-WINNING POET & THERAPIST (AUDIO)

Welcome to today’s episode, where we’re joined by Ronald Lieber, an award-winning poet whose debut collection, 'The Long Journey Out', weaves a lifetime of experiences into evocative verses. Born in Japan to a Japanese mother and a Jewish-American military father, Ronald’s early life spanned fourteen homes by age fourteen, shaping his unique perspective. A former Peace Corps volunteer in Costa Rica, a retired English professor from SUNY Nassau, and a licensed psychoanalyst in New York City, Ronald recently completed plant medicine guide training in Philadelphia. His poetry, praised by Kirkus Review for its penetrating exploration of wonder and emotion, draws from seven decades of reflection.
