Zoe Trope (born 1986) is the pseudonym of a self-described pomosexual (bisexual[1]) teenage writer from Portland, Oregon.[2]

Her 2003 book Please Don't Kill The Freshman: A Memoir was released to much critical acclaim. Her writing was praised not for its maturity, but rather its lack thereof. Consequently many critics feel a mild antipathy towards the famously anonymous teenager.

She fast became a local literary icon, touring the country and being the subject of numerous feature articles. Zoe Trope graduated from high-school early, with the class of 2003. She graduated from Oberlin College in 2007.
