Shappy, also known as "The Major Player", is a 31 year old poet and frequent poetry slam participant. His day job is at Quimby's bookstore in Chicago and he hosts the poetry slam (or "The Shappening" as he calls it) at Estelle's in Winter Park. He has toured with Lollapalooza and appeared on Comedy Central. Some of his work can be found in small press collections (more like pamphlets, really) like the charming Little Book of Ass and Sensitive Little Poetry Boy from Kapow! Press.
