Zoe Branch is an artist and writer based in Brooklyn, New York. Her broad experience across such areas as editing, fashion styling, stage managing, acting, copywriting, translating, and tutoring serves as testament to her general hunger and curiosity as a creative human being. 

After beginning her career officially as a staff writer for a small print magazine, she moved to New York in 2020 to bet on an idea she thought might be possible: that she could earn more money as a poet than she had as a journalist. Within nine months, the idea proved itself viable, and she's been a full-time poet and creator since.

Having written on-the-spot typewriter poetry for brands ranging from Free People, Bloomberg, The New York Botanical Gardens, Goldman Sachs, Indeed, Ulla Johnson, Mara Hoffman, Apartment Therapy, The New York Public Library, and many more, Branch has brought her artistry and warmth into myriad spaces to surprise and delight strangers with her words. 

Since 2021, she has been teamed up with creative agency Ars Poetica and is currently collaborating with other women entrepreneurs to co-found a new model of booking poetry services. 

She owes much of her current state to her grandfather, who never threw away his own dad's typewriter — the one with which Branch first started writing for strangers.

Other creative projects beyond performance poetry include a soon-to-be-announced book project and a one-woman show about her estranged grandmother.
