Donna Masini was born in Brooklyn and has always lived in NYC. Her latest collection of poems, 4:30 Movie, an elegy for her sister, explores personal loss, global violence, the ways in which movies shape our imaginations. Her first collection of poems, That Kind of Danger (Beacon Press, 1994), was selected by Mona Van Duyn for the Barnard Women Poets Prize. She next published a novel, About Yvonne (W.W. Norton and Co., 1997) which the New York Times called “a stunning novel of sexual obsession.” In 2004 she published her second collection of poems, Turning to Fiction (WW Norton and Co).
