Lisa Russ Spaar is a contemporary American poet, professor, and essayist.
She is currently a professor of English and Creative Writing at the University of Virginia and the director of the Area Program in Poetry Writing.[1] She is the author of numerous books of poetry, most recently Vanitas, Rough: Poems and Satin Cash: Poems. Her latest collection, Orexia, was published by Persea Books in 2017. Her poem, Temple Gaudete, published in IMAGE Journal, won a 2016 Pushcart Prize.
