Arlee Woodhull
Arlee Woodhull works as a self-employed tax consultant in Sutherlin, Oregon, but her artistic outlet is her love of poetry. She is also writing a children's book for her granddaughter. Her father was part Choctaw and her mother was English. She was raised with Native American spirituality and that is still her core, though she also practices Buddhism. Writing poetry is a spiritual activity for her. Some of her favorite poets are Dylan Thomas, Sherman Alexie, Leslie Silko, Jim Barnes, and Anita Endrezze Probst.

Recognizing the need for poetry in our lives, the Oregon Poetic Voices Project (OPV) is a comprehensive digital archive of poetry readings that will complement existing print collections of poetry across the state.
"We each carry lines of poetry with us. Words that others have written float back to us and stay with us, indelibly. We clutch these "life lines" like totems, repeat them as mantras, and summon them for comfort and laughter."
-Academy of American Poets
