Timothy Poisson is a recent creative writing Masters degree graduate from Dartmouth College. He was awarded an open research grant in affiliation with Trinity College Dublin. A writer and artist of graphic novels and radio plays under the pen name Tim Fish, the latest book he co-created, Liebestrasse, was named on the American Libraries Association’s official list of best graphic novels for adults in 2022. His research will focus on historic and cultural trends in Ireland’s diversity, equity, and inclusivity in contrast to that of the U.S. His research will form the foundation for several creative projects, including a graphic novel and a radio play. His aim is to engage readers and audiences in challenging topics to consider new perspectives through entertainment. In addition to research and writing, Tim will co-teach the graduate seminar in ‘Consuming History’ at TCD.
