Peter Gordon grew up in Brooklyn, New York. He received a B.A. from Yale and a M.F.A. in Theatre Directing from Carnegie-Mellon. After working as a teacher, dramaturg, and director in New York, he worked in television for NBC, HBO, and PBS. He moved to Orlando fifteen years ago to help launch the Golf Channel and now heads the channel’s international business. Peter has published several articles about baseball history. He recently had articles published in Lifestyles Magazine. He rededicated himself to writing poetry after joining the First Tuesday Poetry Meetup Group last year. He’s grateful to the group for their support and for giving him a reason to finish poems every month. Peter and his wife just celebrated their 25th anniversary. They are the proud parents of three boys.

    • “ The people that come out to poetry open mics are the best people on the planet. We had visitors all the way from New Smyrna Beach--How cool is that? The poetry shared left a feeling in the air of a family reunion. Thanks to all who came out. Especially our feature Peter Gordon, who I have known for a year and can honestly say , I enjoy listening to his work. Thanks again to Robert from Bad Ass, who shared one of his two poems with us, and showed great promise with his offering. I can't wait until next month! ”
