About Tracie Morris

---

I've performed, researched and presented work in close to 40 countries and on every continent except Antarctica (so far).  My installations and performances have been featured at many national and international museums and galleries.

I've presented poetry, performance art, acting, academic addresses, talks, and live shows with music in many venues, including colleges and universities  throughout New York, the US and the world.

My most recent poetry collection is human/nature poems (Litmus Press,2023). 

I have an MFA in Creative Writing -Poetry from Hunter College, a PhD in Performance Studies from New York University and studied acting technique at Michael Howard Studios in New York and  the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, London. I've also  been a professor for over 25 years (time flies!) at renowned institutions of higher education including the Iowa Writers' Workshop. 

In 2021 I was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship for poetry.   

This photo, is a little dated. The older I get, the more rings I wear for some reason. Or maybe the longer my hair gets, the more rings I wear irl. I don't know the reason but: Trophies of life, baby!
