LONG ISLAND AUTHORS’ CIRCLE INDUCTS TAMMY NUZZO MORGAN OF SOUTHAMPTON
The Long Island Authors’ Circle has announced that Southampton resident, Tammy Nuzzo-Morgan, has been received into the organization as a member in good standing.
Ms. Nuzzo-Morgan, an accomplished poet and author, is a graduate of Long Island University, and holds an MBA degree in Banking & Finance from C.W. Post, as well as an MFA degree in Creative Writing from Stony Brook University. She is currently enrolled in a Ph. D program at Union Institute and University.
Well known in Long Island literary circles, Ms. Nuzzo-Morgan has been an Adjunct Professor at the Patchogue campus of Briarcliffe College since 2009. She is also an online instructor at Union Institute and University.
Ms. Nuzzo-Morgan is the founder and president of the North Sea Poetry Scene, Inc., and among many other honors was nominated in 2011 for a Pushcart Prize for her work, “Beneath an Irish Sky,”
Named Suffolk County Poet Laureate for 2009-2011, the newest LIAC member is the author of several poems and anthologies in a number of translations, and is the current editor of the Long Island Sounds Anthology.
The Long Island Authors’ Circle is composed of published Long Island writers, 18 or older, in nearly every genre. The group holds no formal meetings, levies no fees or dues, and elects no officers. Said spokesman novelist Jeb Ladouceur of Smithtown, “We follow no written by-laws, nor is the LIAC affiliated with any other association.”
The LIAC was established in 2015 by unanimous agreement and consent of the six existing charter members (4 women and 2 men) who hail from five different towns in both Long Island counties. New members are invited to join the group when a candidate’s application (letter and resume) are unanimously approved by these founding LIAC members.
