Staceyann Chin

Culture Project’s poet-in-residence is a mainstay of WCS festivals. This year, while working on a new book, she brings brand new material to the festival. Staceyann Chin has been an “out poet and political activist” since 1998, presenting work at venues from the Nuyorican Poets’ Cafe to poetry workshops in Denmark and London to the Tony Award-winning Russell Simmons Def Poetry Jam on Broadway for which she was a co-writer and performer.

Staceyann Chin is presented as part of the 2007 Women Center Stage Festival.
