Katrina Porteous
Katrina Porteous (born 1960 in Aberdeen) is a poet, historian and broadcaster. Her particular interests include the inshore fishing community of the Northumberland coast, and the cultural and natural history of that area.
==Biography==
Porteous grew up in Co. Durham, and has lived on the Northumberland coast since 1987. She read History at Cambridge and afterwards studied in the USA on a Harkness Fellowship. In 1989 she won an Eric Gregory Award, and has since received awards from Arts Council England and the Arts Foundation.
Many of the poems in her first collection, ''The Lost Music'' (Bloodaxe Books, 1996), focus on the Northumbrian fishing community. Her prose books on the subject include ''The Bonny Fisher Lad'' (People’s History, 2003) and ''Limekilns and Lobster Pots'' (Jardine Press, 2013). She also writes in Northumbrian dialect, as in ''The Wund an’ the Wetter'', recorded on CD with piper Chris Ormston (Iron Press, 1999). She is President of the (Northumbrian Language Society ), and an ambassador for New Networks for Nature.
Since 2000 she has specialised in radio poetry, much of it with BBC producer Julian May. Works include ''Longshore Drift'', ''Dunstanburgh'' and ''The Refuge Box''. Her second full-length collection from Bloodaxe Books, ''Two Countries'' (2014), includes some of these poems. She has been involved in many collaborations with other artists and musicians. In 2000 she worked with composer Alistair Anderson on the musical ''Tam Lin''. Most recently she has collaborated with digital composer Peter Zinovieff on ''Horse'' (2011, about the 3,000-year-old Uffington White Horse), and ''Edge'' (2013, a poem in four moons for the Centre for Life planetarium, Newcastle).
