Shauntay Grant is a poet, playwright, interdisciplinary artist and children鈥檚 author who lives and works in Kjipuktuk, Mi鈥檏ma鈥檏i (Halifax, Nova Scotia). As an artist with ancestral ties to the arrival of Black Loyalists, Jamaican Maroons, and Black Refugees to Nova Scotia in the late 1700s and early 1800s, creating art that illuminates African Nova Scotian and African diasporic histories and experiences is a vital part of her research and work. A former poet laureate for the City of Halifax, she 鈥渃reates artworks that are engaging and accessible, but also challenging, rigorous, and informed by deep research (The Royal Society of Canada).鈥� A听member of The Royal Society of Canada鈥檚 College of New Scholars, Artists, and Scientists, her other honours include a Joseph S. Stauffer Prize in Writing and Publishing from the Canada Council for the Arts, a Robert Merritt Award for her stage play The Bridge,听a Marilyn Baillie Picture Book Award for Africville (a collaboration with illustrator Eva Campbell), and a Poet of Honour prize from the Canadian Festival of Spoken Word. Her books have received starred reviews from Kirkus Reviews, Publishers Weekly,听Quill and Quire, and Canadian Review of Materials.
