Anna Broome

The distinction between real and imagined is a theme I visit regularly. The Romantic movement inspired me in terms of the poets and painters focus on external and internal factors influencing perception and action. I incorporate the psychology now realized in an attempt to explore and examine human behavior, experience, tragedy and success through poetry and painting.

I am a poet, painter from Memphis, Tennessee. I studied English Literature and Language and Creative Writing, Poetry at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington. I moved to Los Angeles in 2003 and joined the downtown Los Angeles art movement having shows at the Continental and various galleries in the Art's District. I am a member of Story Phile, a poetry troupe which reads original work at the Last Bookstore the first Thursday of every month. I also read in Santa Monica and other venues downtown.
