Translator Alessio Zanelli was born in 1963 in Cremona, a small, quiet town in Lombardy, northern Italy, where he still lives and works as a private financial advisor. He began writing poetry in 1985, at first also in Italian and afterwards exclusively in English, a language he has been learning completely as an autodidact.

He is widely published in small press magazines from almost every English-speaking country, his latest credits including Potomac Review (MD), Möbius (DE), Skyline Literary Magazine (NY), Pulsar (UK), The Journal (UK), Poetry Monthly (UK) and Freexpression (AUS). His first collection, titled Loose Sheets, was published in 2000 in the UK by an independent press, whereas a new one is due out in early 2003 in the USA under the title Small Press Verse & Poeticonjectures. Both titles are available through major e-bookstores such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
