Wendell Hawken

Wendell Hawken (she/her) earned her MFA in Poetry at Warren Wilson decades after her BA. Publications include three chapbooks and five full collections. Hawken was recently named the first Poet Laureate of Millwood, VA, a quirky unincorporated village in the northern Shenandoah Valley where she lives on a farm with two dogs, and where the first meaning of AI is artificial insemination.
