Peter Moretzsohn

Peter Moretzsohn is a poet, musician, gardener and Zen practitioner living with his wife in central Vermont. Born in Pennsylvania, he fell in love with both the Dharma and the Green Mountains as a college student, and his life has been oriented toward them ever since. His poetry and prose have been published in the Philadelphia-based Quaker magazine Friends Journal. His work has always revolved around themes of stillness and silence, and a sense of something uncontrived to be found therein. Since 2019 he has been engaged in formal Zen training as a lay student at Zen Mountain Monastery in Mt. Tremper, NY.
