Lyn Hejinian teaches at UC Berkeley, where her academic work is addressed principally to modernist, postmodern, and contemporary poetry and poetics, with a particular interest in avant-garde movements and the social practices they entail. She is the author of more than twenty-five volumes of poetry and critical prose, the most recent of which is Positions of the Sun. Her poetic trilogy Tribunal will publish later this year. The recipient of various awards, including a Guggenheim Fellowship, she is co-director (with Travis Ortiz) of Atelos, a literary project commissioning and publishing cross-genre work by poets, and co-editor (with Jane Gregory and Claire Marie Stancek) of Nion Editions.
Trisha Low is a poet and performer living in the East Bay. She is the author of The Compleat Purge and the forthcoming Socialist Realism.
Noah Warren is the author of The Destroyer in the Glass, winner of the Yale Series of Younger Poets. A former Stegner Fellow, his work appears in The Paris Review, Poetry, Poem-a-Day, New England Review, PEN America, and elsewhere. He is pursuing a Ph.D. in English at UC Berkeley.
