Ginger Zyskowski
Ginger Zyskowski is a Kansas native who, at the early age of two, was enrolled in
tap dancing lessons which eventually led to a long career as a percussionist, a
performer and music educator. Ginger graduated high school from the
Interlochen Arts Academy, Interlochen, MI, and completed a Bachelor’s degree
and a Master’s degree in music from The University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI.
Ginger’s main focus was music, but as an elementary student, she also discovered
a love for the rhythms and melodies of poetry. She has had poems published in
several anthologies, newsletters, and was chosen 1 of 20 winners for ‘Out on a
Limb: poetry in the trees’ - celebrating 60 years for the Evergreen Arboretum and
Gardens in Everett, WA. Ginger published her first chapbook, ‘Love and Lovers’, in
2021 and her second chapbook, ‘Another Think Coming! Poems and Stuff’ in 2022.
Ginger’s book of poetry and prose, ‘In a Word’, was published in 2023, has
beautiful illustrations, and offers a unique look at the alphabet that adults as well as children can enjoy.
Her most recent project was the publication and release of her memoir,
‘Shattered-One Woman’s True Story of Trauma, Coercive Control and Survival.’
“The life of a 32-year-old professional musician, university instructor and mother of 3,
is thrown into chaos when her young children are abducted and she is viciously kidnapped.
The author shares her harrowing true story here for the first time.”
