Julie Carr (born 1966) is an American poet who was awarded a 2011 National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship for Poetry. [1]
She graduated from Barnard College with a BA in 1988, from New York University with an MFA in 1997, and from University of California, Berkeley with a Ph.D. in 2006. She teaches at University of Colorado. [2]
Her work has appeared in Volt, Verse, New American Writing, Parthenon West, Boston Review, Verse, Bombay Gin, Denver Quarterly, Colorado Review, American Letters and Commentary, and Public Space. [3]
She is co-publisher of Counterpath Press. [4]
In her first book, Mead: an Epithalamion (2004), Julie Carr employed marriage as both a theme and as the starting point for her poetic inquiries into relation and interconnection. Her second book, Equivocal (2007), goes a step farther in its scope, exploring specifically the roles and bonds of mother and child, and of child-becoming-mother, as well as opening into questions of family, history, and identity. In this investigation, Carr seeks to confront issues of an individual’s responsibility to others, whether they be a child, parent, spouse, or the world itself. [7]
