Marcus Reichert was a painter, poet, and director. He was given his first exhibition of paintings at the age of twenty-one at the legendary Gotham Book Mart and Art Gallery, New York, home to the Surrealists during WWII. In 1990, he was honored with a retrospective organized by the Hatton Gallery of the University of Newcastle which toured in various forms to Glasgow, London, Paris, and the United States.

His film works are held in the Archive of the Museum of Modern Art, New York. He is the author of three novels, including the cult classic Verdon Angster, and his writing has been featured internationally in numerous journals and collections.
