Barrie began studying and writing haiku five years ago upon her retirement from law practice. She started a blog (72 is the New 72 at barrielevine.com), mentors new poets through the Haiku Society of America, and leads a memoir writing class at her local senior center. She likes to think she is ageless based on her new-found and life-affirming passion for haiku which took her by storm in her 70s. She is proud to be recognized this year by Red Moon Press in A New Resonance 14 featuring Emerging Voices in English-Language Haiku.
