While working in the record industry, he began to study poetry composition, particularly the works of 20th-century American poets like Robert Frost and W.D. Snodgrass, and the poetry criticism of Judson Jerome. Mid-life, Daniel transitioned into a part-time church musician and songwriter, and eventually, became a stay-at-home dad. Although kept busy by his duties at home, Daniel found cracks in his schedule—waiting to pick up kids from school, make dinner, or even hiking in the San Gabriel mountains—to write poetry, and over a year's time, composed sixty new poems, some of which are included here. He thinks of himself as a "neo-structuralist," meaning that he thinks in meter, and gravitates to rhyme, but prefers that neither gets in the way of the poem itself. Daniel currently lives in Pasadena, California with his wife Brenda, and his children, Drake and Ivy.view less
