Susan absolutely rocks! We were both June poets at Bucknell back in '94; I remember she was writing a show called "Venus Envy" (which she later took on the road) and that she knew every word, every nuance, to every song by James Brown... We met up again at AWP in Chicago and ohmygawd the woman is gorgeous! Gorgeous, smart, hip, talented, and finally, finally, the author of a forthcoming book of poems [Roam]. Watch her!
