Donna Henderson is the author of four collections of poems, two of which were finalists for the Oregon Book Award in Poetry. In 2007, Donna and three other poets founded Oregon’s Airlie Press, a shared-work collective which continues to publish beautiful books of poetry in close collaboration with the poets themselves. Donna’s poems, essays, reviews, song lyrics and cross-genre collaborations have appeared widely in journals, recordings, and performance venues, and her long-running, monthly-ish column, Are You With Me Here? (subtitle: ‘Deep Thoughts. And Some Shallow Ones’) in ongoing on Substack.
