More about the performers:
Michael Malice is the subject of Harvey Pekar’s latest graphic novel, Ego & Hubris. He is the author and founding editor of Overheard in New York and currently runs OverheardAtCollege.com. In Entertainment Weekly’s opinion, he possesses “a superiority complex both repellent and compelling.” While the “slacker genius” (GQ) in him finds this disquieting, the “sociopathic jerk” (Wired) is otherwise oddly unaffected.
Heather Ann Snodgrass is an Australian-born, Canadian-educated alien who moved to New York from San Diego last December ago to counter the severe shortage of freelance writers in the city. She rose to Internet fame last fall as one of the writers behind the parody blog, Tale of Two Sisters (goldsteins.typepad.com) and now serves as a chorewhore intern for Gawker.com. A sucker for emotionally and otherwise unavailable men, Heather finds herself inexplicably drawn to dive bars with satellite jukeboxes and she can probably drink you under the table. Her burgeoning alcoholism is well documented at fauxy.net, and she doesn't really give a shit what you think about her, unless it's regarding her mad fellatio skillz or her collection of adorably girly shoes.
Lia loves her dog, New York City and bacon, usually in that order. She received her master's degree from NYU's Interactive Telecommunications Program and makes her living as a freelance writer, designer, photographer, and new media consultant.
Danielle Thorburn arrived in NYC on a very big jet from Australia nearly five years ago, on the eve of her 30th birthday. She hoped that the culture shock would outweigh the age shock. It did! So much so that she forgot to leave. Danielle has become the new American Dream (™). She lives in Brooklyn with a small but vibrant cult who feed her heart and mind on a regular basis. She loves meeting people, playing Boggle, obsessing over Meryl Streep, and sculpting friends out of polymer clay. Check out more of her art and words at fluffmuppet.blogspot.com.
So come on out to Bowery Poetry Club on Wednesday night and join us, mmmkay?
