Lorri Neilsen Glenn

I was raised in railway towns on the prairies and moved to Nova Scotia over twenty years ago. After years as an ethnographer, a professor and an author of books on research and feminist issues, I began to write poetry and essays, and now wonder what took me so long. The ocean, the prairie horizon and stories of dauntless women inspire me equally. I was appointed Poet Laureate of Halifax for 2005–2009.
