Tsead Bruinja (1974, Rinsumageest / The Netherlands) lives and works in Amsterdam (The Netherlands).

He writes poetry, reviews of poetry and has organized several literary events such as the open-air poetry festival Dichters in de Prinsentuin (Poets in the Prince's garden). He writes in Dutch and Frisian and has published his work in a number of literary magazines. For a period of two years he was a member of the editorial board of the Frisian magazine Hjir.

His Frisian debut De wizers yn it read / The meters in the red (Bornmeer) was published in 2000. In 2001 his second collection of Frisian poetry De man dy't rinne moat / The man who has to walk appeared in print, followed in 2003 by the collection Gegrommel fan satyn / Mutterings in satin. Dutch poems were published a number of anthologies, one of them is Vanuit de lucht / Out of the air (Passage, 2001), an anthology of work by the youngest generation of poets writing in Dutch.

Together with the editor of this anthology, Daniël Dee, Bruinja has compiled two anthologies on the male and female genitalia, entitled Kutgedichten (Passage, 2004) en Klotengedichten (Passage, 2005). The titles of his collections of Dutch poetry are Dat het zo hoorde/The way it should be (Contact, 2003) and Batterij/Battery (Contact, 2004).

October 2004 witnessed the presentation of a bilingual miscellany that he compiled in conjunction with Hein Jaap Hilarides: Droom in blauwe regenjas / Dream yn blauwe reinjas - Nieuwe Friese dichters / Nije Fryske dichters - Dream in a Blue Raincoat / New Frisian Poets. A special website with Frisian poetry in English translation as well as information on Frisian literature and short movieclips featuring these Frisian poets can be enjoyed at: www.droominblauweregenjas.info.
