Stacey is Assistant Professor of English at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln and has published four collections of poems: Choke (winner of the 2004 Frank O’Hara Prize), Love Poem to Androgyny(winner of the 2006 Main Street Rag Chapbook Competition), the lake has no saint (winner of the 2008 Snowbound Prize from Tupelo Press), and Butch Geography (Tupelo Press, 2013). Waite’s poems have been published most recently in The Cream City Review, Bloom, Indiana Review, and Black Warrior Review. Stacey is a coach and coordinator for the Nebraska Writers Collective Louder Than A Bomb program.

Stacey and I had a great time talking about her poetry, Nebraska Writers Collective, and gender issues. We talked in depth about how students lives are changed through the Nebraska Writers Collective Louder Than A Bomb program. Stacey also performs one of her poems at the end of the episode.
