Biography: A pioneer in women's publishing and in the art of performance poetry, Waters has been writing and publishing for over three decades. Hailed as the "Poet Laureate of Hell's Kitchen," she is the recipient of a New York Foundation for the Arts fellowship in Poetry and a fellowship from the Barbara Deming Memorial Fund. Her work has been nominated for several Pushcart prizes and is widely published.
