Tia Fishler

Tia Fishler has recently graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in English with a Concentration of Poetry, with Honors, from Hobart and William Smith Colleges. She has lived in Poughkeepsie, New York, for her entire life. Through Hobart and William Smith Colleges, she has been the winner of multiple awards, such as the Deborah Tall Prize in Poetry/Creative Nonfiction in English and Comparative Literature. Her poetry emphasizes the use of sound in language as a way to illustrate the personal tangibility of feminine rage as a result of relationship abuse. These themes are also brought to life through 'challenged forms', which aim to create feminine narratives from historically patriarchal forms such as sonnets, screenplays, and indexes. Tia hopes to become a voice for those who have undergone relationship abuse.
