Since 1967, Keith Smith has been making books. They range from artist books to poetry, textbooks, and dictionaries. He has made over 150 one-of-a-kind artist’s books, most of which are in his own collection and seen by only a handful of people. Smith has published over two dozen small editioned artist’s books and book-length poems and written ten small dictionaries to aid structure and vocabulary in his poetry.
