She is a full professor on the University of Houston’s Creative Writing Program faculty. Belieu is co-founder, with Cate Marvin and Ann Townsend, of VIDA: Women in Literary Arts, a non-profit intersectional feminist literary organization dedicated to creating transparency surrounding gender imbalances and the lack of diversity in the literary landscape.
