A breakout literary phenomenon and #1 New York Times bestselling author, Rupi Kaur wrote, illustrated, and self-published her first poetry collection, milk and honey (2014). Next came its artistic siblings, the sun and her flowers (2017) and home body (2020), both debuting at #1 on bestseller lists across the world. These collections have sold over 12 million copies and have been translated into over 40 languages, with milk and honey becoming one of the highest-selling poetry books of the 21st century. She was also regarded as “writer of the decade” by The New Republic and recognized on the Forbes 30 under 30 list. In 2022, Kaur released her fourth book, Healing Through Words.    

In 2021, Kaur produced Rupi Kaur Live, a first-of-its-kind poetry special on Amazon Prime Video. Kaur also executive produced the film This Place, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2022, and the 2024 Academy Award–nominated film To K*ll a Tiger.

Kaur has graced stages across the globe and completed her third sold-out world tour in 2023. Her shows are poetic theatrical experiences interlaced with Kaur’s own touch of stand-up comedy. Kaur’s work encompasses love, loss, trauma, healing, femininity, and more.
