Our featured speaker will be Nancy Murphy, a Los Angeles-based poet and author of the chapbook The Space Carved by the Sharpness of Your Absence. The poems in this book were described by Pulitzer Prize-winning writer Robert Olen Butler as "pitch perfect and brave in their wisdom." Nancy was a winner in the Aurora Poetry contest in Winter 2020.
Previous poetry publications include SWWIM, Sheila-Na-Gig, glassworks, The Ekphrastic Review, The Baltimore Review, Anacapa Review, Jackdaw Review, and others. A longtime volunteer with WriteGirl, Nancy has mentored teens through writing workshops and in the juvenile detention system.
