Elizabeth Harper, Chicago Poet

41 years old

Chicago, IL

Female

About

I read poetry in bars. Here's my bio: Elizabeth Harper is a poet living in Chicago and walking on air with her head in the clouds when she is not rolling around on the ground with her mind in the gutter. She is the author of two books of poetry, Love Songs from Psychopaths and Fairy Tales Gone Awry. She is the newest member of PolyRhythmic--A Chicago Arts Collective--which hosts an open mic night at Trace, 3714 N Clark, on Tuesday nights. She has read at many venues around town including Phyllis' Musical Inn, Trace, Mercury Café, The Spot, Monarte Gallery, Silvie's, The Spare Room, The Heartland Café, Black Rock Bar, Jaks Tap, and Weeds. She participated in The Chicago Calling Festival in 2006 and 2007, and more recently she participated in the Poetry Bomb as a poetry bomber standing out by the Water Tower screaming poetry at confused pedestrians. Books are available from Quimby's in Chicago and Amazon.com. Hear my performances on richexperience.net. I'm in the friends section. http://www.richexperience.net/

Hey Elizabeth, I'll be coming out to Chicago to play at Heaven Gallery again with Jason Stein and Mark Kirschenmann from Ann Arbor , November 1st.
Hope to see You while I'm there...

"We all admire the spangled acrobat with classical grace meticulously walking his tight rope in the talcum light; but how much rarer art there is in the sagging rope expert wearing scarecrow clothes and impersonating a grotesque drunk! I should know." (Vladimir Nabokov)
Thank you for your friendship! Musical greetings from Munich/Germany!
Feel free to download my music, dear Elizabeth! And if you have some poems I could set into music, let me know!

And I'm looking forward to getting more copies of Your books!!!
