Jonathan Greene has long been the proprieter, typographer, designer, and chief bottle washer with Dobree Adams at Gnomon Press from the Kentucky River watershed. His many books have been found in the best poetry collections since the 1960s. His skill at harvesting just the found-words, as above, is a craft shared with his once Appalachian neighbor and friend Jonathan Williams.
