Nick Jans is one of Alaska's most recognized and prolific writers. A contributing editor to Alaska Magazine and a member of USA Today's board of editorial contributors, he's written nine books and hundreds of magazine articles, and contributed to many anthologies. His range includes poetry, short fiction, literary essays, natural history, outdoor adventure, fishing, and political commentary. He has been the recipient of numerous writing awards including a Rasmuson Foundation artist grant. He currently lives in Juneau with his wife, Sherrie, and travels widely in Alaska. He returns each year to Ambler, the arctic Inupiaq Eskimo village in which he lived for 20 years, and the place he still calls "home."
"A fresh wonderful new voice, all the more alive against the grave and ancient background of Inupiat tradition, wildlife, and the waiting landscape. I much admire The Last Light Breaking." --- Peter Matthiessen, author of The Snow Leopard and At Play in the Fields of the Lord
