Journey To Stardom

Douglas Ridloff started composing poetry in American Sign Language when he was just a teenager. It all began after a well-known ASL poet named Peter Cook visited his high school. But for 10 years he hadn’t done much in the way of slam poetry apart from a little dabbling. Eventually, it changed when his friend invited him to an informal gathering of college students, where ASL was used to respond to challenges and prompts.

According to Douglas, he was not interested. He at that time did ASL poetry and storytelling for fun at parties and backyard gatherings. But as time went by, he began joining in when there were gaps in performances. Gradually, he started paying more attention to the host’s approach to the craft and began incorporating it into his own routine.

Eventually, Douglas became hosting ASL. The show has gone on tour to Michigan and Austin, and overseas to France. The ASL also visited Cuba, to work closely with the members of the deaf community. Meanwhile, Ridloff is now performing regularly in New York City, in a medium that he says has benefits and nuances that spoken word poetry does not.
