In the mid-1980’s, Fred Lowe collaborated with the painter and printmaker Richard Kirk Mills on a folio, Intimate Views . . .from Away, that explored the coast of Eastern Maine. The folio was widely exhibited in Philadelphia, Maine, and New York City. In 2003, he produced a chapbook for AlphaBeat, FL’s Down-Home Un-Chicken Chowder, collaborating with the print maker and photo-collagist Will Hübscher. Fred is a past recipient of a poetry fellowship from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts and a Pushcart Prize nominee.
