Carol Tyx grew up in Cincinnati, Ohio. After a decade of employment in special education, Carol returned to her first loves-reading and writing-initially at Wright State University and then at The University of Iowa. Her chapbook, The Fifty Poems, bears witness to these transitions. More recently, her work has appeared in RHINO, Poetry East, Water Stone Review, and Iowa City's Poetry in Public project. Currently, Carol lives in Iowa City where she tends her raspberry patch, helps out at a local CSA, practices yoga and mindfulness, fumbles with big questions amidst a faith community, and teaches writing and literature at Mount Mercy University. She has two sons, a daughter by marriage, and two grandchildren. On any given day you might find her cooking with kale, contra dancing, or standing on her head.
