Martin is a long- time teacher, activist, spoken-word artist, and slam poet; he earned his MFA from Rutgers University-Camden, where he was a Rutgers University Fellow. He had begun to see himself as a “recovering poet” but his children’s growing love of words dragged him, mostly happily, off the wagon. Martin is the Coordinator of the Writing Center at Arcadia University. As much as possible, however, his focus remains on his wife Christy and their kids Thalie and Elio.
