She retired from Queens College CUNY, after 33 years, as Full Professor, Emerita. She has spent many years doing poetry therapy and creative writing in prisons in the UK and USA. She trained future high school teachers at Rikers Island's male prison. She did poetry therapy in the New York State women's maximum security prison in the psychiatric division of the institution and published a book of their poetry, and a book of her own poetry: On the Ledge. She continues to teach creative writing in an adult program in Connecticut. Together with her husband Dr. William Krummel, she has volunteered in India and China in the area of education and professional development for teachers of English. She believes living is an endless search in expanding one's knowledge of the world through teaching and exploring new cultures, including the dehumanizing effects of the whitewashed American prison system.view less
