Susan Richardson is a Welsh ecopoet, performer and
educator, whose third collection of poetry, skindancing, was
published by Cinnamon Press in 2015. Her first collection,
Creatures of the Intertidal Zone (Cinnamon Press, 2007), was
inspired by her own, and other human and non-human
animals', journeys through the increasingly fragile Arctic
environment. Where the Air is Rarefied (Cinnamon Press,
2011), her second collection, is a collaboration with visual
artist Pat Gregory, focusing on environmental and mythological themes relating to the Far North.
Susan is currently poet-in-residence with both the Marine Conservation Society and the global
animal welfare initiative, World Animal Day. She is also the co-founder and poetry editor of
Zoomorphic, the online journal that publishes work in celebration and defence of wild animals.
