Steven Schroeder grew up in the Texas Panhandle, where he first learned to take nothing seriously, and his poetry continues to be rooted in the experience of the Plains.
Schroeder teaches at the University of Chicago in Asian Classics and the Basic Program of Liberal Education for Adults and at Shenzhen University in China. In 2004, he co-founded with composer Clarice Assad the Virtual Artists Collective, which is a "virtual" gathering of musicians, poets and visual artists that has resulted with five full-length poetry collections published each year since the collective's beginning.
Schroeder's work has been published in several journals, including After Hours, Amarillo Bay, Cha: An Asian Literary Journal, Concho River Review, Georgetown Review, Karamu, Mid-American Poetry Review, Moon City Review, New Texas, Rhino Magazine, San Pedro River Review, Texas Poetry Calendar, Texas Review and Art Review, among many others.
