Timeline
Norma Cole (born May 12, 1945) is a Canadian poet, visual artist, translator, and curator.
An Anglophone Canadian by birth, Cole learned French at an early age, and went on to translate the works of French poets Emmanuel Hocquard, Danielle Collobert, Fouad Gabriel Naffah, Jean Daive, and others with whom she is intellectually allied.
Cole studied at the University of Toronto, where she received a B.A. in Modern Languages and Literature (French and Italian) in 1967 and an M.A. in French Language and Literature in 1969.
After university, Cole moved to France in time to absorb the revolutionary atmosphere of the aftermath of the May '68 general strike.
She spent several years living in a small village in the foothills of the Alpes-Maritimes near Nice.
During this period in France, Cole began drawing, sculpting, and establishing relationships with many contemporary French poets.
In the late 1970s and 1980s Cole was a member of the San Francisco-based circle of poets congregating around Robert Duncan.
Her papers are collected at the Archive for New Poetry at the Mandeville Special Collections Library, University of California San Diego.
She was born in Toronto, Canada to an Anglophone family, Norma Cole began learning French in middle school.
In the early 1970s Cole returned to Toronto, before migrating to San Francisco in 1977, where she has lived ever since.
Upon her arrival to the Bay Area, Cole got a job in the public school system, but it was through her association with New College of California that she met her core community of poets, including Robert Duncan, Michael Palmer, David Levi Strauss, Susan Thackrey, Aaron Shurin, and Laura Moriarty.
However she continued to spend time in France, and her association with French poets has been crucial to her work.
Norma Cole is the recipient of the Gerbode Poetry Prize and a grant from the Fund for Poetry.
"The Poetics of Vertigo" — delivered as the 1998 "George Oppen Memorial Lecture" for The Poetry Center, SFSU — won the Robert D. Richardson Non-Fiction Award.
With Boston photographer Ben E. Watkins she won the Purchase Award for their photo/text collaboration, "They Flatter Almost Recognize."
Norma Cole's work has received great acclaim for her: "openness to traditions and practices, artists and writings, radically divergent from her own".
Recently, she collaborated with The Poetry Center & American Poetry Archives at SFSU in honor of their fiftieth anniversary.
There she helped to create a site-specific gallery installation titled Collective Memory which opened on December 11, 2004 and ran through April 16, 2005.

In 2006 she was awarded a grant from the Foundation for Contemporary Arts Grants to Artists Award.
