More about Jay Walker
Jason "Jay" Walker is a stage & indie film actor from Rhode Island, and a published poet and spoken word artist. His first two chapbook publications sold out of their first printings, while his third official publication, Flower, was released on November 9, 2011.   He’s been writing poetry--mainly spoken word & haiku/senryuu--since high school and getting naked in public, figuratively and literally, since 1993.

He’s a three-time finalist for the Providence Poetry Slam team, making first alternate the third time in 1998 and he is a host and regular performer at several poetry readings in his home state. Walker was also the first Isis Storm “Man We Love” blogger and only male in the artist collective. His second book, “Where I’m Coming From" was a declaration of the status of his emotional journey to the ultimate destination of peace, love & nakedness for all.” 

He has one son, who dreams of being an architect but also has some great dance moves...and yes, the boy's name really is Luke Sky (Walker).  For more information about Jay Walker, visit www.JayWalkerOnline.com or find him on Twitter @JayWalkerOnline.
