Stephen Kalaghan

Stephen Kalaghan is a long time Cape Ann area resident, having lived in Gloucester, MA and Rockport, MA since 1990. Originally from Weymouth, MA, he is a 1986 graduate of Cotting School, in Lexington, MA, and a 1994 graduate of the University of Massachusetts at Boston, where he earned a B.A. Degree, majoring in Theatre Arts.

More recently, he has been presenting material on occasion at The Gloucester Writers Center’s Open Mic and “The Rockport Poetry Open Mic” at Brackett’s Ocean View in Rockport.
