About the Author

Ander Monson is an acclaimed American writer, editor, and professor whose work deftly explores the intersections of memory, technology, and the ephemeral nature of human experience. Drawing from his background in creative writing and his role as editor of DIAGRAM, a journal of innovative prose and visual art, Monson crafts narratives that blur the lines between essay, fiction, and memoir, often incorporating unconventional forms to interrogate how we document and preserve our lives. His fascination with the artifacts of reading and writing shines through in his examinations of marginalia and inscriptions, reflecting a broader curiosity about what endures in our cultural detritus. A recipient of fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts and a Pushcart Prize nominee, Monson teaches at the University of Arizona, where he continues to inspire a new generation of writers to embrace the fragmented and the found.
