A poet and sometimes artist, Kristy Bowen is the author of in the bird museum (Dusie Books, 2008) and the fever almanac (Ghost Road Press, 2006) as well as the forthcoming collection, girl show (Ghost Road, 2009).

She edits the online litzine wicked alice and runs dancing girl press & studio, which publishes work by emerging women poets; hosts readings, retreats and workshops regarding women's poetics and DIY publishing; and creates a variety of paper and ephemera related arts and crafts.

Unofficially, her passions include Joseph Cornell, victoriana, carnivals/sideshows, horror films, diagramatic things, archives, old scientific & botanical, illustrations, architectural drawings, postcards, and all things paper.

She lives and writes in Chicago in a big old art deco building near the lake, where she funds her writing and other (mis)adventures by working in the library of an arts college. She only occasionally refers to herself in 3rd person.
