James Ph. Kotsybar, published in six countries, is the first poet (honored by NASA to be) published to another planet. His verse orbits Mars (at the request of NASA’s MAVEN team and worldwide internet voting), became part of Hubble Space Telescope’s Mission Log, on its 20th Anniversary and was awarded and featured at NASA’s Centaur’s 50th Anniversary Art Challenge. Other honors include State Poetry Society of Michigan (Joseph Gordon-Levitt workshopped this into a screenplay) and Balticon Competitions. Invited in 2018 to read for Troubadours, (Europe’s oldest literary institution) in their founding city of Toulouse, France, at EuroScience Open Forum, Europe's largest interdisciplinary science event, earning a standing return invitation. He has performed his poetry to L.A. dance clubs (Lhasa), onstage at the Los Angeles Performing Arts Center and Santa Barbara's Granada Theater, and sung the poetry of William Blake with Allen Ginsberg at the Old Vic Theater in Santa Barbara.Recently seen in or on: The Bangalore Review, 86 Logic, Gargoyle, The Fib Review, California Quarterly, Society of Classical Poets, Gunpowder Press, High Shelf, Scifaikuest, Burningword, Prometheus Unbound, Poetry Box, Seisma, Ilanot Review, The Abstract Elephant, Showbear Family Circus, County Lines, Hunger For Awe.
