欧美诗坛一颗耀眼的新星。1977年出生于乌克兰敖德萨市一个犹太家庭，4岁失去听力，12-13岁开始发表散文和诗。苏联解体之后排犹浪潮掀起，16岁时他和家人以难民身份移居美国。1994年父亲去世，他开始用英语写作，“用新的语言来悼念父亲”。目前，他是加州圣迭戈州立大学副教授、创作系主任，讲授世界文学、诗歌创作及翻译，并主编享誉国际诗坛的《诗国际》年刊。 2004年，卡明斯基出版第一本诗集《舞在敖德萨》，引起诗坛轰动，奖项如潮而至，迄今已有西班牙语、法语、俄语、罗马尼亚语、波斯语、荷兰语等多种译本，卡明斯基也因此成为众多国际诗歌节争相邀请的热门人物。他的最新诗集《聋子共和国》与散文集《难度诗人》即将出版。作为俄罗斯少年流亡者，他的诗歌具有“白银”诗人的纯正抒情，但“流亡”主题在他的后现代诗学中演化为“美好的礼物”和“疯狂而美丽的自由”。
