Stefan Bohdan |
Stefan Bohdan (Scott Lee Bogden) lives in Orlando, Florida USA. He is
retired from the architectural/engineering/construction world. He now
spends his time writing poems and novels. His English poems have been published
in multiple books, anthologies, journals, newspapers, e-zines and translated
into Persian (Farsi), Arabic, Urdu, Nepali, Hindi, Bengali, Estonian,
French, Spanish, old Japanese, Dutch, Afrikaans, Turkish, Italian, Malayalam,
Assamese, Tamil, Bosnian-Croatian-Serbian, Hebrew, Filipino, Hiligaynon,
Kinaray-a, and Albanian. He also writes reviews for poetry books. He is
internationally published and has collaborated with poets, translators and
artists from around the world. He is the founder of Third Eye Butterfly Press.
Stefan Bohdan was born in 1966 in
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, lived in Jamaica and Iran, and has traveled the
world. He currently lives in Central Florida with his wife and dogs. He is the
father of five adult children: three females and two males. He is also a
grandfather.
Stefan has been a construction
laborer, a land/road surveyor, an estimator, a manual draftsman, a CADD
technician, a designer for state/national/international architectural and
engineering and construction firms, a licensed building contractor, and has owned
his own business designing custom homes. He has been a community college
student who received his Associates in Arts degree (Seminole Community College)
and is a university dropout: a former student of Computer Engineering
(University of Central Florida).
An addiction, and the health and legal problems associated with it, ended his university scholarship and cost him employment with some of the largest architectural and engineering firms in the world. It also cost him an employment offer from NASA/Kennedy Space Center. Clean and sober since 2007, he reinvented himself as a poet. He currently works for a small engineering company as an electronics assembler (days) and as a poet and publisher (nights).
Stefan enjoys writing poetry and creating pencil and charcoal drawings,
abstract paintings, Turkish limestone sculptures, and multiple-exposure
photography using his Lubitel/USSR camera. He loves reading poetry, Russian
literature and dystopian novels. He is currently learning Russian, Ukrainian,
and Hindi and to play guitar.
For My Muse (2020), God’s Silence a Lion’s Roar
(2018), and God’s Breath (2018) are his most recent published poetry
books.
