Twyla M. Hansen (born 1949) is an American poet, currently serving as the Nebraska State Poet. She is the third Nebraskan and first woman to hold this position, to which she was appointed by Governor Dave Heineman in November 2013.[1]

Life

Hansen was raised near the town of Lyons in northeast Nebraska and currently lives in Lincoln. She holds a bachelor's degree in horticulture and a master's degree in agroecology from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.[2] While working as grounds manager and arboretum curator at Nebraska Wesleyan University, Hansen took classes from poet William Kloefkorn, who became one of her mentors.[3][4] Hansen was appointed to replace Kloefkorn as Nebraska State Poet after his death in 2011.
