Julia C. Gaytán is a self-proclaimed math geek who spends her weekdays teaching high school math and her weeknights reading and writing poetry and short stories. Julia grew up in the Nickerson Gardens, a housing project of Watts, and attended inner city k-12 schools until attending UCLA as an undergraduate and graduate student. As an undergrad she majored in Chicana/o Studies and History and minored in African American Studies and Political Science. It is in her studies that she fully began to embrace her identity as a Chicana poet while simultaneously exploring different identities and realities outside of her lived experience. Recently, her work was published in MALCS Chicana/Latina Studies Journal and before that in The Waiting Room, an anthology by Nervous Ghost Press. Currently, she helps with organizing screenings with Espiral Collective, participates in various benefits for You're Going to Die (YG2D) and volunteers as a slush reader for The Metaworker Literary Magazine. She lives with her two children in southern California.$5 cover fee, cash only
