Additionally, she has received fellowships from both the Guggenheim Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts. Her poems have appeared in literary journals and magazines including ''The New Yorker'', ''Field'', ''Ploughshares'', ''The Georgia Review'', ''The Paris Review'', ''Poetry'', ''The Nation'', and ''The Yale Review''.〔(''Blackbird'' > Chase Twichell Bio )〕 Many of Twichell's poems are heavily influenced by her years as a Zen Buddhist student of John Daido Loori at Zen Mountain Monastery, and her poetry in the book ''The Snow Watcher'' shows it.〔(The Poetry Foundation > Poet > Chase Twichell Biography )〕〔(Blue Flower Arts > Author Booking Agency > Chase Twichell Bio )〕 She attended the Foote School in New Haven. In the Fall 2003 ''Tricycle magazine'' interview with Chase, she says, "Zazen and poetry are both studies of the mind. I find the internal pressure exerted by emotion and by a koan to be similar in surprising and unpredictable ways. Zen is a wonderful sieve through which to pour a poem. It strains out whatever's inessential." Twichell was born in New Haven, Connecticut, and earned her B.A. from Trinity College and her M.F.A. from the Iowa Writers' Workshop. She lives in New York with her husband, novelist Russell Banks. She has taught at Princeton University, Warren Wilson College, Goddard College, University of Alabama, and Hampshire College.〔(Academy of American Poets > Chase Twichell Bio )〕〔(Ausable Press > About the Editor )〕〔(Blue Flower Arts > Author Booking Agency > Chase Twichell Bio )〕 Twichell was a judge for the 2011 Griffin Poetry Prize. ==Published works== Full-length poetry collections * ''Horses Where the Answers Should Have Been'' (Copper Canyon Press, 2010) * ''The Snow Watcher'' (Ontario Review Press, 1998) * ''The Ghost of Eden'' (Ontario Review Press, 1995) * ''Perdido'' (Farrar, Straus & Giroux, 1991) * ''Northern Spy: Poems''(University of Pittsburgh Press, 1981) * ''Dog Language'' (Copper Canyon Press, 2005) * ''The Odds'' (University of Pittsburgh Press, 1986) Anthologies edited * ''The Practice of Poetry: Writing Exercises From Poets Who Teach'' (edited with Robin Behn: HarperPerennial, 1992) Translations * ''The Lover of God'', Poems by Rabindranath Tagore (Copper Canyon Press, 2003) (translated with Tony K.
