}}Lee Ann Brown (born October 11, 1963) is an American poet and book publisher. She has published several volumes of poetry in addition to being the founder of Tender Buttons Press, a poetry press dedicated to publishing experimental women’s poetry. She has taught at Brown University, Naropa University, Bard College, and the New School and was the Judith E. Wilson Poetry Fellow at Cambridge University from 2017-2018. Brown’s work draws from the New York School and language poetry, as well as her upbringing in Charlotte, North Carolina.[1]

Biography

Brown was born on the Johnson airbase in Saitama Prefecture, Japan and grew up in Charlotte, North Carolina. She attended Brown University for both her undergraduate and masters degrees. She started Tender Buttons Press in 1989 to publish Bernadette Mayer’s book The Sonnets and has since released over a dozen books, two of which won Firecracker Awards for achievements in Indie Publishing. [2] Brown’s own work has been published in several volumes, starting with her collection Polyverse (Sun & Moon Press, 1999) which won the 1996 New American Poetry Competition judged by Charles Bernstein. Her other collections include The Sleep That Changed Everything (Wesleyan University Press, 2003), Crowns of Charlotte (Carolina Wren Press, 2013), and In the Laurels, Caught (Fence Books, 2013), which won the 2012 Fence Modern Poets Series Award. Her newest book is Other Archer (Presses Universitaires de Rouen et du Havre, 2015) which was also translated into French. Brown’s work has been praised for its ingenuity, passion, and flare for the local, Sarah Sarai writes, “...Brown’s poetic obsession is greater and more eclectic than local color, norm, tool, parcel” [3]. Introducing Brown’s work in the Boston Review, Elaine Equi comments, “Pleasure is the subject of Lee Ann Brown's poetry. Pleasure in the craft and anti-craft of poem making. Pleasure in the vocalizing and harmonizing of voice and text--speech and writing….To paraphrase Lee Ann's version of her own poetic genealogy: enthusiasm is the mother ("We are the daughters of enthusiasm"), excitement the sister ("Where are my excitement sisters").” Brown currently lives in Manhattan, where she runs the Page Poetry Parlor.[4]
