Founded in 1987, Alden Street Review (ASR) is a literary and art magazine that showcases the creative talents of Springfield College students and staff. With its first online publication in 2023, Alden Street Review aims to spread the creative content of its pages to a new platform, making it easily accessible to all.

EDITOR-IN-CHIEF / PRINT
Angel Martinez is in the Health Sciences program and minor in Creative Writing at Springfield College, and joined Alden Street Review after submitting to it last year in hopes of gaining more experience and wanting to contribute more to the creative community here on campus. I have a weird but healthy obsession with Courage the Cowardly Dog and love all forms of expression; however, my personal favorites are poetry and anything philosophy-related. I hope that with our new system, we garner more creative pieces than before, and can’t wait to hunker down and read all the pieces submitted to us.
JUNIOR EDITOR
Maegan Boucher is a freshman majoring in English and minoring in Public History and Museum Studies. When Maegan isn’t rehearsing with the Best of Broadway club preparing for their next show, she loves rewatching Gilmore Girls and Glee on repeat and enjoys all things bookish. She is so excited to be a part of the Alden Street Review.
JUNIOR EDITOR
Elijah Colon-Mendez is a junior majoring in English and Computer Science. He wanted to be a part of the Alden Street Review to promote creative writing while also learning how to improve his own.
