ELIOT GLAZER

Eliot Glazer is a comedian, actor, podcaster, musician, and writer for beloved TV shows including New Girl, Younger, and Broad City, on which he played "Eliot" in his most challenging role to date. His new book The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Gay features augh-out-loud yet quietly heartbreaking stories that capture the glory, chaos, and contradictions of queer modern life—a rallying cry for anyone who’s ever felt like the odd one out, the minority within the minority, and the one who always seems to “do it wrong.” Kirkus Reviews calls it “hilarious, playful assessments from an antihero living on the fringes of the gay community.”"

PAISLEY REKDAL

Paisley Rekdal is the author of four books of nonfiction and seven books of poetry, including West: A Translation, which won the 2024 Kingsley Tufts Poetry Award, the Utah Book Award in Poetry, and was longlisted for the National Book Award. The former Utah poet laureate, she directs the American West Center at the University of Utah. Her newest book of poems, Heritance, examines the personal and familial shames we inherit, challenges the reader to contextualize their perspective within the corporeal, and questions what it means to love outside of “the lens of someone else's imagining."
