Elizabeth Burk is a psychologist and a native New Yorker who divides her time between family in New York and a home and husband in southwest Louisiana.



Unmoored, Elizabeth Burk's debut full-length poetry book was published in November 2024, by Texas Review Press. “Unmoored” has been described as “both existentially serious and massively entertaining. It is arranged loosely in the form of a memoir—as a New Yorker who married a Cajun, Burk lives part-time in southwest Louisiana and has published three chapbooks describing this experience, Learning to Love Louisiana, Louisiana Purchase and Duet: Poet & Photographer. This new collection includes many poems from these chapbooks as well as new poems that focus on aging—on getting through the last stretch of life with grace and humor.”
