// Quincy R. Lehr //

Quincy R. Lehr was born in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma on November 14, 1975 and grew up in the nearby university town of Norman. After attending public schools in his home town, he attended the University of Texas at Austin before going on to graduate work in history at Columbia University, resulting in a Ph.D. in 2006. The poetry developed along the way, says Lehr, “because it was cheaper than buying beer.”

// Kit Fryatt //

Kit Fryatt was born in 1978 in Tehran, and grew up in Singapore, Turkey and England. She moved to Ireland in 1999. In 2008 she set up Wurm im apfel with Dylan Harris, and from 2010 organised Wurm events solo. In 2009 she won the Stinging Fly prize for the poem “Ghastlymake”, which was also the first poem to win the prize in its history.
