Danny Balel was a member of the 2005 Worcester Youth Slam team, founding member of the Clark University Slam Team, and member of the 2009 Worcester Poets' Asylum Slam team. Danny like to slam in Worcester as it has the weirdest and friendliest people on the earth. His work has been published in the Ballard Street Poetry Journal and the Albion. A co-host at the Asylum, a touring member of the performance group ARTiculation, and a child still, Danny loves you, whoever you are. And always will.

Danny is one of the co-hosts for the weekly Poets' Asylum reading on Sunday night and an organizer for the reading.
