BIO:
In the mid-70s, Puma Perl happened by the Nuyorican Poets Café on its second night of existence. Along with countless other Lower East Side residents, she discovered that the transformative power of poetry and performance was accessible to her, regardless of class and academic achievement. Decades later—still living in New York City—she is a widely published poet, writer, performer, producer, and photographer.
Puma is the author of two chapbooks, the award-winning "Belinda and Her Friends" and "Ruby True", and the full-length collection "knuckle tattoos". Her poetry and short stories has appeared in numerous journals and anthologies including "It’s Animal but Merciful" (great weather for MEDIA, 2012), "The Understanding between Foxes and Light" (great weather for MEDIA, 2013), "Maintenant", "Rattle", "The Chiron Review", "Have a NYC" (Three Rooms Press), and "Bullying: Replies, Rebuttals, Confessions, and Catharsis".
