Elma Mitchell (1919-2000) Elma Mitchell was born at Airdrie, Scotland in 1919. She has worked as a professional librarian as well as in broadcasting, publishing and journalism in London, and as a free-lance writer and translator. People Etcetera contains many new poems, together with a selection of the best poems from two out-of-print earlier collections, The Poor Man in the Flesh (Peterloo Poets 1976), and The Human Cage (Peterloo Poets 1979). No poems are included from her third collection Furnished Rooms (Peterloo Poets, 1983), which, at the time this volume was released, was still available. Elma Mitchell was a first-prize winner in the Cheltenham Festival Poetry Competition in 1977. http://www.peterloopoets.com/html/stocklist_131.html
