The first and last American to have won the Scottish International Poetry Competition, Joseph Charles MacKenzie is a traditional lyric poet of Christian inspiration.
MacKenzie has been a poet in residence at the Club des Poètes (Paris), a language teacher in a traditional French lycée, a literary consultant for Vicky Messica’s production of “Rimbaud et Verlaine" at the Théâtre des Déchargeurs (Paris), and has recited poetry internationally in three languages.
MacKenzie is a member of the Society of Classical Poets (New York) and has appeared in “Trinacria” (New York), America's most important journal of traditional lyric verse. His verses have also appeared in The New York Times, The Scotsman (Edinburgh), The Independent (London), and other important venues.
