Andrew J. Graff

Unfortunately, this event has been canceled due to illness. Sorry for any inconvenience. Festival organizers are working to schedule Graff for another date.

As noted by novelist Mark Helprin, “A good river is nature's life work in song.” Author Andrew J. Graff has used his knowledge of northwoods rivers as inspiration for two novels, including his latest, True North. Graff will discuss the metaphors of wilderness, whitewater rivers, and relationships, and how nature can inform us about ourselves.


Andrew J. Graff is the author of the novel True North. His fiction and essays have appeared in Image and Dappled Things. Andrew grew up fishing, hiking, and hunting in Wisconsin’s Northwoods. After a tour of duty in Afghanistan, he earned an MFA from the Iowa Writers’ Workshop.
