About Ben Oliver

Ben Oliver lives with his family in the Cotswolds, Gloucestershire. As a child he grew up by (and in) the River Thames, where he developed a deep affinity with nature. Having studied Biology, he works at Westonbirt National Arboretum, helping people engage with the majesty of trees. He has been fortunate to have had poems published in many haiku journals, including Frogpond, Heron’s Nest, Modern Haiku, Presence, Blithe Spirit, Kingfisher and Failed Haiku.
