Zoë Luh

(she/they)
Zoë Luh is a poet, artist, and disability doula living on unceded Tiwa lands. They believe in poetry as a necessary tool for collective liberation and reclamation of bodily autonomy. As a poet, she feels it’s her duty and joy to use writing as a liberation practice and a tool for radical imagining. Zoë graduated from Oberlin College with a BA in Comparative American Studies, and a minor in Studio Art. She published her first book of poetry, [and time erodes like thunder], with Assure Press in 2020, and is featured in Death Rattle/Oroboro, Blue Mesa Review, Saranac Review, In Between Spaces, a disability-centered anthology published with Stillhouse Press, and more. They were selected by Carolina Ebeid as a runner up for the 2024 American Literary Review Awards, and are a creative nonfiction reader for Wildscape Lit. They are currently working on a project centering their lived experience with the medical-industrial complex, and interrogating the connections between disability-based violence and global struggles for liberation.
