Denice Frohman[1] is a poet, writer, performer and educator, whose work explores the intersections of race, gender, and sexuality. Frohman uses her experience as a queer woman from a multi-cultural (Puerto Rican and Jewish) [2] background in her writing. By addressing identity, her work encourages communities to challenge the dominant social constructs and oppressive narratives in place that are currently working against concepts of unity and equity. Her message is about claiming the power to be who you are.[3][4][5] She was born and raised in New York City, and earned her master's degree in education from Drexel University.[6]
Denice Frohman won the 2013 Women of the World Poetry Slam[7] Championship. Denice is also a 2014 CantoMundo[8] Fellow, 2014 National Association of Latino Arts & Cultures[9] Fund for the Arts[9] grant recipient, 2013 Hispanic Choice Award[10] recipient for "Creative Artist of the Year,"[11] 2013 Southern Fried Poetry Slam[12] Champion, and 2012 Leeway Transformation Award[13] recipient. Frohman was partnered with fellow Women of the World Champion for 2014 and 2012 Dominique Christina as an award-winning spoken word duo, Sister Outsider.[14] The two toured nationally, appearing at schools such as Boston University and conferences such as College Union Poetry Slam Invitational.[15]
