Bill Campana

Bill Campana at the 2004 Mesa Slamoff

The most trusted voice in arizona poetry.

A member of 5 Mesa National Poetry Slam Teams, Bill has been to the Semi-Finals of the National Poetry Slam twice. He has hosted and featured across the southwest, and continue to write at a feverish pace, always challenging his fellow poets to better their craft. Bill Campana is the atom bomb that levels ivory towers. He got people in the Phoenix area excited enough about poetry back in the 90s to come back for more, and to see what would happen next. Soon, the audience was too big for the coffeehouse, a feat unprecedented since Socrates dared the baristas to make him a Hemlock Frappuchino.
