Then she started taking summer courses at the University of New Hampshire with the poet Mekeel McBride. In 1996, The New England Association of Teachers of English (NEATE) named her poet of the year. While working at her local high school, she helped found a writing center, wrote a two semester creative writing curriculum, and taught American literature and creative writing. She has a B. A. from the University of New Hampshire, an M.A. in literature and writing from Rivier College, and an M.F.A. from Vermont College. Bruce has had more than forty poems published in several anthologies and journals as Touchstone, NEATE'S The Leaflet, Southern New Hampshire University Journal, Compass Rose, and The Spoon River Poetry Journal.view less
