Abby Minor

Abby Minor lives in the ridges and valleys of central Pennsylvania, where she works on poems, essays, gardens, farms, and projects exploring regional and reproductive politics. Her first book, As I Said: A Dissent (Ricochet Editions, 2022), is a collection of long documentary poems concerning abortion, justice, and citizenship in U.S. history. Since 2017, Abby has served as the founding co-director of Ridgelines Language Arts, a nonprofit that offers creative writing and storytelling programs for central Pennsylvanians who are impacted by stigma and injustice.
