Timeline

2019

Harvey is completing a second poetry manuscript and also working on a memoir about her younger sister’s struggles with depression.

2017

Harvey is an assistant professor at the University of Pittsburgh. She teaches in the English department's writing program; her teaching deals with African and disaporic literature and culture, digital and new media, poetry and lyric essays, and multimodal composition. She is on the faculty for The Frost Place's 2017 Conference on Poetry.

2016

In 2016, Harvey became a writer for the Marvel Comics series World of Wakanda, a spinoff of the Black Panther series; she and Roxane Gay are the first two black women to write for Marvel. Ta-Nehisi Coates, who initially connected Gay and Harvey with the Marvel franchise, said that he recommended Harvey because he felt her skill in poetry would translate well to the short-form storytelling necessary in successful comics: "That’s just so little space, and you have to speak with so much power. I thought she’d be a natural." Harvey contributed an origin story for World of Wakanda's revolutionary leader Zenzi, and has said she was inspired by the example of Winnie Mandela.

2013

Harvey published her first poetry collection, Hemming the Water, with Four Way Books in 2013. She won 2014 Kate Tufts Discovery Award for the collection and was named a finalist for 2014 Hurston/Wright Legacy Award in poetry. Reviewing Hemming the Water in the Pittsburgh City Paper, Mike Schneider said, "At her best — such as 'Rose Lassi' — Harvey creates a feeling of something put together as well as the best machines that sew and sing, every word a necessary part of the whole humming beauty." In the Asterix Journal, Lauren Russell wrote of the collection that its "shiftiness is Harvey’s particular genius. In poems that weave tenderness and violence, the expectation and the surprise, Harvey thwarts the grand cliché even as she courts it, stitching together a polyphony of voices, visions and songs in a patchwork too slippery for any matinee idol to wear."

1996

Harvey is now divorced from Terrance Hayes; the two met at a Cave Canem retreat for black poets in 1996. They have two children, a son and daughter.

1974

Yona Harvey (born 1974) is an American poet and assistant professor at University of Pittsburgh. She won the 2014 Kate Tufts Discovery Award. She is also an author of Marvel Comics' World of Wakanda, becoming one of the first two black women writing for Marvel.
