LAURA CHINN
Laura Chinn is a writer, comedian, actress, and director who has established herself as a creative mind to watch through her extensive catalog of work across multiple different mediums. Her debut memoir, Acne, follows Chinn as she hilariously remembers her struggle of growing up on the west coast of Florida as a mixed-race girl whose appearance doesn’t necessarily match her identity. Chinn recounts her life with a combination of laugh-out-loud recollections and heart-wrenching moments of introspection and self-love that expand beyond the typical memoir. Other themes in her work include humor, beauty, insecurities, and abandonment. Chinn also created and starred in Pop TV's beloved comedy Florida Girls. She was previously a producer and writer on the popular Fox series The Mick, a writer on Grandfathered, and made her directorial debut with Suncoast, a movie drama based on her adolescence.

JENNY ODELL
Jenny Odell is a multi-disciplinary artist and author whose work utilizes close observation as a driving force. Her first book was the New York Times bestseller, How to Do Nothing: Resisting the Attention Economy which reads like a self-help manual turned political manifesto and was named one the best books of the year by TIME, NPR, and others. Odell returns with another attention-grabbing book titled Saving Time: Discovering a Life Beyond the Clock. In dazzling, subversive, and deeply hopeful ways, Odell shows the reader in her latest book how to think past the ticking time bomb of capitalism. Alongside her booklength projects, she taught digital art at Stanford Unviersity and her visual art has been exhibited around the world. Her writing has also appeared in The Atlantic, New York Times, Sierra Magazine, and more. Website • Twitter
RECKLESS SON
Reckless Son is the musical project of New York-based musician Matt Butler, who has travelled across the country performing in prisons. He took his experiences on the road and penned a one man show organized into nine chapters, featuring a collection of music and monologues painting vivid pictures of the people he met and stories he heard inside these facilities. “People who have lost everything or have had everything taken from them are often truly in touch with what matters most,” Butler said during the show’s final stretch, delivering the line as songwriter who visits prisons not only to sing, but to listen, too. Filled with Americana songs inspired by Woody Guthrie, Townes Van Zandt, and other troubadours, Reckless Son is more than a show. It’s a calling. A service. A pledge to, as Butler puts it, “bring healing through the arts.” Website • Instagram
