2022 Philly Loves Poetry Interview and Readings Series
Katie Ford is the author of four books of poems: Deposition; Colosseum; Blood Lyrics; and If You Have to Go. Blood Lyrics was a finalist for the LA Times Book Prize and the Rilke Prize. Colosseum was named among the “Best Books of 2008” by Publishers Weekly and the Virginia Quarterly Review and led to a Lannan Literary Fellowship and the Larry Levis Prize. International invitations to read and lecture include festivals in Tunis, Morocco, Oslo, and Stockholm. She has taught poetry and creative writing for nineteen years around the country–at Loyola University New Orleans, Reed College, Franklin & Marshall College, the Iowa Summer Writing Festival, the Community of Writers, and at numerous festivals and residencies. She teaches at the University of California, Riverside. New work, “Estrangement,” will be featured in the May/June issue of Philadelphia’s American Poetry Review. Katie lived in Philadelphia from 2007-2014 and holds it dear as the city in which her daughter was born.
