About Judy Malloy
In the over twenty years since she first wrote
Uncle Roger on Art Com Electronic Network,
Judy Malloy has created an innovative body of new
media narrative poetry that in hypertextual
structures explores the lives of artists and women.
Beginning in the 1970's with a series of handmade
visual books that sought to create a nonsequential
reading experience, her work has been featured in
over one hundred curated exhibitions, invited
readings and panels, and published works.
She strives for a poetic clarity, so that each lexia
-- an idea developed in the handmade books --
transcends the computer screen and can either
stand by itself or be combined in the reading or
array to create a larger narrative.
Among her recent works of narrative poetry are the
artist's trilogy Paths of Memory and Painting
that includes
where every luminous landscape and
when the foreground and the background merged
and the disclosure quests, a series of four works
including
Revelations of Secret Surveillance,
that call attention to the potential for covert
technology-mediated surveillance of civilians.
Born and raised in New England, Judy Malloy has
lived and created in Massachusetts, New
Hampshire, Vermont, Colorado, Arizona, New
Mexico, Berkeley, and, since 1996 in El Sobrante,
California. She has a mobility disability, and her blog
Poet on Crutches features writing and
sketches from hiking on crutches in the beautiful
local hills and beyond. And she is currently working
on a trilogy
Paths of Memory and Painting
She believes that ideally print literature and
new media literature; sequential literature and
hypernarrative; painting and new media; are parallel
art forms where writers and artists in each medium
understand each other's vision and, as between
poetry and fiction, sometimes move with ease
between paper, canvas, and new media.

reviews page.
