Timeline
She is co-editor of the anthology series Bettering American Poetry (Bettering Books) and, with Heidi Lynn Staples, the anthology, Big Energy Poets: Ecopoetry Thinks Climate Change (Blazevox Books 2017).
In 2016, Adam Fitzgerald named King "One of the 30 Poets You Should Be Reading", and she was listed as one of "13 New York Poets Changing the Lit Scene" by Civil Coping Mechanisms in March 2017.
In 2016, she spoke out about the Swedish Academy’s decision to award Bob Dylan the Noble Prize in Literature.
King received the 2015 WNBA Award (Women's National Book Association). She also received The Feminist Press' "40 Under 40: The Future of Feminism" award in 2010 and the 2012 SUNY Chancellor's Award for Excellence in Scholarship and Creative Activities.
In March 2015, King publicly critiqued University of Pennsylvania's adjunct lecturer Kenneth Goldsmith’s controversial performance at RISD of his poem, ""The Body of Michael Brown" in her essay, "Why Are People So Invested in Kenneth Goldsmith?".
In August 2015, King curated and contributed to a forum for Poetry Foundation that raised the question, "What Is Literary Activism?", which resulted in online debate about the merits of literary activism.
From 2010 – 2014, she co-edited the online response to the BP Gulf Oil Spill, Poets for Living Waters, with Heidi Lynn Staples and co-edited the PEN America Poetry Series with Ana Bozicevic in 2010. For many years, she moderated the POETICS list, sponsored by The Electronic Poetry Center (SUNY-Buffalo/University of Pennsylvania).
A founding member (2009) of the literary arts activist organization, Vida: Women in Literary Arts, King currently serves on the Executive Board and is the press officer and Editor-in-Chief of the VIDA Review. Known for its annual report on the rates of publication between male and female authors, in 2014, the VIDA Count expanded to include race, sexual orientation and writers with disabilities. The VIDA Count has been influential in rendering visible a lack of parity in contemporary American literary publishing, thus promoting industry attention and discussion around issues of bias.
King founded and curated, from 2006, the Brooklyn-based reading series, The Stain of Poetry, until 2010.
King has published five full-length poetry collections, including Antidotes for an Alibi (BlazeVOX Books 2005), I’m the Man Who Loves You (BlazeVOX Books 2007, Slaves to do These Things (BlazeVOX Books 2009), I Want to Make You Safe (Litmus Press 2011) and The Missing Museum (Tarpaulin Sky Press 2016).
Since 2003, King has taught English and creative writing at SUNY Nassau Community College. She has also guest-lectured and conducted workshops at a number of colleges and universities, including Goddard College, Naropa University, RISD (Rhode Island School of Design), San Francisco State University, Slippery Rock University, and Salem College Center for Women Writers.
