Chloe Hanson earned her PhD in Creative Writing from the University of Tennessee. Her work has always been informed by her interest in the parallel and overlapping oppression of marginalized humans and nonhuman animals. Bluebeard’s Key examines that relationship through the lens of re-told fairy tales. Her work has also appeared in numerous publications, including The Rumpus, Fairy Tale Review, and Glass: A Journal of Poetry. @lemonworld1991
