Hannah Green (poet)

Hannah Green is a Canadian poet from Winnipeg, Manitoba.[1] She is also an editor at CV2, a Canadian poetry journal.

She was a finalist for the RBC Bronwen Wallace Award for Emerging Writers in 2021 for her poetry manuscript Xanax Cowboy.[2] Following the book's publication in 2023, she won the Governor General's Award for English-language poetry at the 2023 Governor General's Awards,[3] and the 2024 Gerald Lampert Award from the League of Canadian Poets.[4]

Writing for Quill & Quire, Micheline Maylor called Green's debut "a revelation of living in our anxious times," praising the shifting role of the dissociated narrator as they move between actor, writer, and director of the cinematic poem.[5]
