Webster MFA Reading Series: Emma Erlbacher and Anna Attie

Organized by the Helen Zell Writers’ Program and presented in partnership with UMMA, the Mark Webster Reading Series showcases the work of second-year MFA students in fiction and poetry.

Emma Erlbacher is a poet from Iowa. Her poetry centers the erotic, queerness, family, the natural world, and mental health.

Anna Attie is a writer, educator, and community organizer from New York City. Her writing has appeared in publications such as The Offing, Sinking City, and In These Times. Her work has been supported by the Kenyon Review Writers Workshop and the Tin House Workshop, and she is currently pursuing an MFA at the University of Michigan’s Helen Zell Writers’ Program.

Friends, family, and members of the Ann Arbor community are welcome to attend the readings both in-person at UMMA or live on Zoom. This series is free and open to the public. For questions, accommodation needs, or the password to attend the event via Zoom, please contact co-hosts, Micah Muhammad (micahmuh@umich.edu) and Jennifer Nessel (jnessel@umich.edu).
