Camp, Lauren

A woman stands at a microphone reading to an audience seated in a cozy, guitar-filled room with eclectic decorations and wooden furniture.

Lauren Camp serves as New Mexico Poet Laureate. She founded the New Mexico Epic Poem Project, in conjunction with New Mexico Arts, and has been crisscrossing the state for the last few years. This project ensures that people across the state, especially in remote and arts-underserved regions, have the chance to explore poetry—and write about their home communities. Camp is the author of eight poetry collections, most recently In Old Sky (Grand Canyon Conservancy, 2024), which grew out of her experience as Astronomer-in-Residence at Grand Canyon National Park. Her poems have been translated into Mandarin, Turkish, Spanish, French, and Arabic.”
