Not being acquainted with Zeiser, I did a Google - apparently she's a Bay-area resident who edited an anthology (which isn't out yet) of lesbian poetry, and she runs an open-mic reading on a regular basis. You mentioned her book of 'Wu Songs', which did not come up in my search. She is often referred to as a 'local writer' in all that I read. The only example of her writing I located was in the 'Bay Times' - an interview she did with an artist. That's pretty much it.
I couldn't find anything that indicates she's has any expertise in Chinese poetry.
