Kim Shuck embraces the fool and jester qualities of being a modern poet and artist. She is a devotee of San Francisco, whose hills she wanders nearly always on foot. She is a poet, weaver, educator, doer of piles of laundry, planter of seeds, traveler and child wrangler. Her ancestors were and are Tsalagi, Sauk and Fox and Polish, for the most part. Kim currently also works with students at the California College of Art in the Diversity Department. In June of 2017 Kim was named the 7th poet laureate of San Francisco.
