With a grant from the Creative Work Fund, she has collaborated on a chapbook series with the artists at Creativity Explored, a studio and gallery for artists with developmental disabilities in San Francisco. The collection is called Tell You What. Her writing has appeared in anthologies including Best American Poetry, Santa Cruz Noir, Post-It Note Diaries, Yes Is The Answer, The Speed Chronicles, and the Outlaw Bible of American Literature, among many others. In 2002, she created the Porchlight Storytelling Series with Arline Klatte, a San Francisco storytelling show that was monthly until 2013. Porchlight now does shows about five times a year and Arline and Beth also teach workshops. She has spoken or performed at the Museum of Modern Art, Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, the Hammer Museum, Shakespeare and Company, the Guggenheim Museum, Stanford University, Storymoja Hay Festival in Nairobi, Lollapalooza, the Lilith Fair, Brown University, and University of Arizona Poetry Center. She has been in residence at Rowland Writers Retreat, CESTA in Tabor, Czech Republic, and the RADAR Lab in Akumal Mexico.

And you can ask her about the weirdness of appearing as a background extra in nearly fifty films and TV shows. The jury box of Law & Order SVU? Of course. As an audio tour narrator, she has worked with MoMA, SF MoMA, The Met, The Smithsonian, the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, and ICA Miami. Since 1999 she has been collaborating with writer/comedian Tara Jepsen on screenplays, stage and video projects. Their web series Rods and Cones was called one of the year’s ten best by Indiewire.
