Born in Odessa, Ilya Kaminsky immigrated to the United States in 1993 when his family was granted asylum by the American government. Polish poet Adam Zagajewski says of Kaminsky, “He grafts the gifts of the Russian newer literary tradition on the American tree of poetry and forgetting.” Kaminsky teaches comparative literature, poetry and literary translation at San Diego State University.
