When the light is void, it is called darkness, and when the darkness is void, it is called light. So explains the poetry collection of Anthony W. McElroy. The poet says his life was truly in darkness, until writing this book led him into the light. Trained for the theater, McElroy was never "fortunate or lucky enough to use my theater training the way I wanted to use it." Instead, he dug deep into his life experiences to write soulful poetry from the heart. McElroy graduated in 1977 from Wesley College in Dover, Delaware, with a degree in theater arts. He continued his theater training for another two years at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, and further studied theater at Point Park University in Pittsburgh in connection with the Pittsburgh Playhouse from 1979 to 1981. "May peace and blessings be with those who buy, read, learn and debate the poems in this book."
