She was born in Kiel, Germany, and immigrated to the United States in the 1960\u2019s, making her home in New York City and beginning in the 1980\u2019s on the East End of Long Island. In the 1970\u2019s she was on the Editorial Board of <em>New York Quarterly<\/em> under its famed editor William Packard and also worked for legendary Broadway director Gene Frankel in his Manhattan theater school. Antje was the author of two chapbooks of poetry, <em>Illegal Tender<\/em> (A Musty Bone Press, Brooklyn) and <em>For Bananafish <\/em>(Three Mile Harbor Press, East Hampton). Her poetry also appeared in a number of magazines and journals, including <em>Affilia, Calyx, New York Quarterly and Narrative Northeast<\/em>.
