About the Poets

Lizzie Wann was an integral part of the development of the San Diego poetry scene in the late 90s and early 2000s. She helped bring slam poetry to the city and produced original shows that featured poets and musicians. She hosted readings at venues across the city including Java Joe’s, Urban Grind, Claire de Lune, and the Grassroots Oasis. She also founded and hosted the Meeting Grace house concert series that ran from 2000-2008. Her work appears on CDs (A Wing & A Prayer and A New Leaf), in self-published chapbooks including Familiars, Naked Wrists, and Baseball Poems, and in anthologies including Comstock Review, Incidental Buildings & Accidental Beauty, A Year in Ink, So Luminous the Wildflowers, Don’t Blame the Ugly Mug, and The San Diego Poetry Annual. In 2019, her first poetry collection, “The Hospice Bubble & Other Devastating Affirmations,” was published by Puna Press.
