Nate Maxson

Nate Maxson is a writer and performance artist. He is the author of several collections of poetry, most recently <em>The Age of Jive</em> and the forthcoming <em>The Whisper Gallery</em>. He lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico. In his words, “I've lived in New Mexico most of my life now and adopting a place as your home gives you a deliberate connection that you're much more consciously aware of compared to living in the same place your family is from your whole life. New Mexico is the borderlands: where the mystic encroaches on the familiar. It sticks to you like dust from Route 66.”
