Ian Randall Wilson's first collection, Ruthless Heaven, was published by Finishing Line Press. His work has appeared The Gettysburg Review and Alaska Quarterly Review. He has an MFA in Fiction and in Poetry from Warren Wilson College. By day, he is an executive at Sony Pictures Entertainment. In these perilous times, he has been looking for a way to describe the political moment without didacticism. "Looking Down From Bridges" is an effort in that direction.
