Greg Masters is a writer and editor who has lived in the East Village of New York City for 45 years. When he arrived in the mid-1970s, he pounded rock and roll drums in basement dives, “alternative” spaces, CBGB and Irving Plaza and began attending readings and workshops at the Poetry Project at St. Mark’s Church and at the Nuyorican Poets Cafe. Along with Michael Scholnick and Gary Lenhart, he edited the poetry magazine Mag City from 1977-1985. In 1977-78, along with a crew of poet comrades, he produced a cable TV show, Public Access Poetry (now available online thanks to the Poetry Project and Penn Sound). From 1980-83, he edited the Poetry Project Newsletter.

He is the publisher and author of 10 Crony Books.
