    Phuong T. Vuong

    Phuong T. Vuong cannot stop thinking about language, memory, and migration. She has been awarded fellowships from Tin House, VONA/Voices, and Kearny Street Workshop’s Interdisciplinary Writers Lab. Her publications have appeared in American Poetry Review, Best American Poetry, Kenyon Review Online, Asian American Writers' Workshop: The Margins, and elsewhere. Her interviews and reviews have been published in journals like The Rumpus and The Adroit Journal. In 2019, her debut poetry collection, The House I Inherit, was published by Finishing Line Press and explores intergenerational trauma and forms of diasporic love. Hailing from Oakland, by way of Hue, Viet Nam, Phuong is currently a PhD student in Literature and a James K. Binder Fellow at the University of California, San Diego, situated on Kumeyaay land. She researches Asian American feminism and is probably drinking Earl Grey tea right this second. Twitter and Instagram: @writephuong
