Elizabeth
Willis' poetry is somber, fragmentary, full of pain and cultural forgetting,
and yet shimmers with flashes of great wit and beauty. She is the author
of two books of poems- Second Law (1993), and The Human Abstract
(1995) along with the chapbooks A/O (1991) and A Maiden (1993).
Her work has been anthologized in the Gertrude Stein Awards in Innovative
North American Poetry, and she won the National Poetry Series in 1994. She
holds a Ph.D. from the Poetics Program at SUNY at Buffalo, and now-hurray!-lives
in Santa Cruz.
