Faculty

Alice Teeter started writing poetry as a child in Winter Haven, Florida, and continued writing at Eckerd College, where she studied with Peter Meinke. Her chapbook entitled 20 CLASS A was published in 1975 by Morningstar Media (editors Dorothy Allison, Flo Hollis, Morgan Gwenwald), Tallahassee, Florida. Teeter’s collection of poems entitled String Theory won the Georgia Poetry Society’s 2008 Charles B. Dickson Chapbook Contest, judged by poet Lewis Turco. Her book When It Happens To You . . . was published in 2009 by Star Cloud Press.

Teeter is a member of the Artist Conference Network, a national coaching community for people doing creative work and also of Alternate ROOTS, a service organization for artists creating community-based work in the Southeast. She has led ‘Improvoetry’ workshops with Lesly Fredman, using improvisation techniques as poetic inspiration and poetry as a springboard for further improvisation. A founding member of the String Theory Cohort, Teeter and the company created dance pieces using her poems “String Theory” and “The Woman Who Ate Anger.”
