Chris McNally is the author of two poetry collections; Fragments of America Volume 1 and Fragments of America Volume 2 (Eye of the Falcon Press, 2016 & 2026). These poems explore personal trials, spiritual awakenings, and the search for integrity, moving from political critique to intimate reflections on love, loss, and what remains. With this second volume, he chronicles the life of the worker across a landscape of American politics that lays bare personal grief alongside a public manifesto. McNally received an MFA from New York University and worked professionally with renowned theater directors Joseph Papp, Paul Lazar, Daniel Sullivan and others. He is currently raising two sons and running a construction project management firm for fine homes. He lives outside Hudson, NY with his wife Tamara.
