Marlboro, NY See Map |
 Gifted pianist, composer, and singer, Akie Bermiss, has been a Man of Letters since he was still in "small clothes".
Bermiss began writing music criticism in his years at Bard College, finishing with a degree in music composition. He also studied American Music (read: tin pan alley, broadway musicals, and jazz) and writing (read: wrote some bad poetry and called it good).
To his friends, he is considered a musical snob of the highest order; to his enemies — a musical charlatan of the basest variety.
Among other things he is the author of a children’s book (“I Hate to Be Sick” - Scholastic), a lover of science fiction, a huge fan of cigars, and he takes his bourbon: neat.
