Jordan Bird (she/they) is a queer/neurodivergent/Mad theatre artist creating work with and for her Mad/neurodivergent/queer siblings. At the intersection of the spiritually weird and the oddly embodied, her work provokes conversations about disability and trauma, and challenges the way the Other (disabled/marginalized/vulnerable) is meant to exist in a world built for the privileged/secure/abled. They're grateful to have collaborated with Inkwell Theatre, Wordsmyth Theatre, Workshop Theatre, the Digital Dramaturgy Project, and The Other Side of Silence. Her work has been recognized by the O'Neill NPC, Bay Street Theatre’s Title Wave festival, Normal Avenue’s NAP Series, the Dramatist Guild’s Virtual Playwriting Fellowship, the Blue Ink Award, the Bay Area Playwrights Festival, and others. She has served as a script doctor, evaluator, and editor with students and professional theatres and is currently facilitating Introduction to Playwriting workshops through a community organization in Tennessee. They're an active member of the DGA, and you can find out more about their work at www.Jordan-Bird.com and on the New Play Exchange. Jordan lives on the land that was cared for and shared by the Tsalaguwetiyi (Eastern Band of Cherokee), S’atsoyaha (Yuchi), and Miccosukee peoples until 1838, when the Cherokee and Yuchi were forced out of the area along the Trail of Tears and the Miccosukee migrated to the Florida everglades to evade forced removal.
