Author's Bio

Jasmine Dreame Wagner is a writer and multidisciplinary artist. She is the author of On a Clear Day (Ahsahta Press), a collection of lyric essays and poems deemed "a capacious book of traveller's observations, cultural criticism, and quarter-life-crisis notes" by Stephanie Burt at The New Yorker and "a radical cultural anthropology of the wild time we're living in" by Iris Cushing at Hyperallergic. Wagner is also the author of Rings (Kelsey Street Press) and six chapbooks. Her work appears in American Letters and Commentary, Beloit Poetry Journal, BOMB Magazine, Colorado Review, Denver Quarterly, Fence, and Guernica. The recipient of an Artist Fellowship from the Connecticut Office of the Arts, two Emergency Grants from the Foundation for Contemporary Arts, and residencies from Kimmel Harding Nelson Center for the Arts, The Lighthouse Works, Marble House Project, Millay Colony for the Arts, Virginia Center for the Creative Arts, and Villa Barr & Michigan Legacy Art Park, Wagner lives and works in New York.
