Lisa Wilde is an artist and teacher. Her panel collaboration Denizens, with DFaye Anderson, will be installed in Brooklyn, August 2025. In portraits and poetry, Denizens confronts the idea that only certain people belong to a place. Wilde's graphic book Yo, Miss: A Graphic Look at High School (Microcosm Publishing, 2015) was called "Riveting" by Alison Bechdel. A follow-up zine Yo, Miss #6: Changes, Vengeance, Trump and the Eumenides was short-listed for Broken Pencil's 2018 Zine Awards. Her work has been exhibited in Portugal, Texas, New York and other places and her art has been published in print and online including WW3, Resist #2, and Mutha Magazine. She was a Keynote speaker at the SUNY Potsdam Literacy Education Conference in 2017. In 2020 she was commissioned to illustrate Our Odyssey, a feminist novel by Myra Goldberg. She has taught for over 25 years at Wildcat Academy, a second-chance high school in NYC.
