Katie Piper
Katie is a Midwest-based writer and theater artist and a recent graduate of the University of Wisconsin - La Crosse, where she completed BA degrees in Theater Performance and English Writing and Rhetoric and a minor in stage management. "What are you going to do with that?" is still her least favorite question, but she's warming up to it, little by little.
​
As an artist Katie hopes to always be exploring the feedback loop between written words and live performance, and she tries to strike a balance between the absurd, the minimalist, and the honest in everything she creates. She's got a soft spot for magical realism and a knack, she likes to think, for stylistic control. Her acting work has gotten the occasional shout-out from the Kennedy Center's American College Theater Festival, and her original fiction has been published in Steam Ticket Vol. 20 and Flash Fiction Online magazine's August 2020 issue.
