Autorenporträt

For twenty years, Wendy Erd traveled between Alaska and Asia supporting indigenous and seldom heard communities to voice their stories through exhibit and film. Now at home in Alaska, mornings begin in front of the wood stove with coffee, a stack of poetry books and her husband as they read poems aloud to begin each day.Her writing appears as prose on road signs in Alaska's Copper River watershed and as poems along an estuary trail in Homer, Alaska. She's received several statewide literary awards. Her work has been published by the Anchorage Daily News, Alaska Quarterly Review, New Rivers Press, Cirque, and anthologized in Out on the Deep Blue: Women, Men and the Ocean They Fish. In collaboration with her dear friend, Lê Phương, their poetry translations were published in The Defiant Muse: Vietnamese Feminist Poems from Antiquity to the Present. She envisioned and coordinated Poems in Place, a project that placed poetry by Alaskan poets on signs in Alaska's state parks.
