Rosemary was born in London in 1946. She began to write and to think of herself as a writer very young, and her idea of what poetry is and does has grown up with her.

She has published two full collections, Threats & Promises, Iron Press, 1991, and Italics,  Shoestring Press, 2010. Between came two pamphlets from Hearing Eye, Life on Mars, 1999 and The Song of the Nobird, 2009. One poem, Lullaby, has had a career of its own, widely anthologised and set for GCSE. 

Her work with video artist Stuart Pound has been shown at festivals all over the world. They began by using spoken poems and have experimented with digitally processed recordings and with putting text on screen. Poems, stills and clips can be found at Poetry with Video  (www.stuartpound.info).

Rosemary won second prize in the National Poetry Competition 2007 with her poem The Hairdresser from Beirut.
