Catherine Graham grew up in Newcastle on Tyne in NorthEast England where she still lives. Her poetry has been published in magazines and anthologies in the UK, USA and Ireland including The Stony Thursday Book as well poems published online. Her awards include the Northern Voices Poetry Award, The Northumberland Writers Award, and The Jo Cox Poetry Prize. Catherine has read her poetry on BBC Radio 4 as well as on local BBC radio. She is the author of three poetry collections. Her pamphlet Like A Fish Out Of Batter is published by Indigo Dreams Publishing and is inspired by the work of artist L. S. Lowry. Catherine writes, “I was drawn to Lowry’s work because the people in his paintings could be my own proud working-class family.” Catherine has read at numerous poetry festivals and events including the The Edinburgh Fringe Festival, The Durham Literature Festival, Northern Stage, The Liverpool International Poetry Festival, and a number of Amnesty International Poetry Benefits. Catherine’s latest poems and recordings are available in the free-to-download online anthology I Sing, Therefore I Am over at: carerspoetry.org
