David Silverman

David Silverman is an award-winning poet from Skokie, Illinois and the author of It's The Little Things: Poems About Love, Faith & Basketball. David's poems are carefully rendered appreciations for the transient nature of existence and the sheer randomness that dictates the circumstances of life. And, as a Jewish poet, his poems are informed by the history, religion, national aspirations, spiritual longings and cultural mores of the Jewish people. But as much as his work is an attempt to take on some of the great, existential questions of the human condition, he is sufficiently satisfied when his writing makes his wife and children laugh out loud.
