appeared on NPR's This American Life, in Raritan and the San Francisco Bay Guardian and various book anthologies. He is currently playing music in Black Rainbow and Onion Flavored Rings. He lives in San
Francisco. Erick will be reading with travelmate Jeff Miller, the creator of the Montreal/Ottawa zine Ghost Pine. "Everyone talks about 'guerrilla art,' but Lyle and his crew are the real deal, Viet Cong in the interstices of gentrification."- Mike Davis

CATHY CROWE is the author/editor of Dying for a Home. She wrote the book with homeless activists including Nancy Baker, Brian Boyd, Kevin Clarke, Dri et al. Cathy

the Toronto Disaster Relief Committee. Some years later Cathy played a key role supporting the hundred-plus homeless people at Toronto's TENT CITY - people who ultimately won housing.
