Note: From a 2016 bio: "Momtaza Mehri is a biomedical scientist, poet and writer who remains unsure which world came first. Her parents are of Eritrean, Somali and Yemini origin. Her work engages with inheritance/ psychosomatics/ ugliness/ biopolitics and digitalised diasporas. She has been active in the zine/journal underworld for some time." She is an editor of the online space Diaspora Drama, and performs her poetry. She currently lives in London.
