Bruce’s Garden welcomes Stephanie Nina Pitsirilos to read from two new works: “Space Invaders”, a work in progress, and an excerpt from her novel, The Saints of Columbus (Unburied secrets from 1492 haunt the world of a Nuyorican preteen on a quest to reinvent home and rewrite history.)

Stephanie is both a public health advocate and writer. Her work will appear in the anthology The Latinx Archive: Speculative Fiction for Dreamers (March 2020). She was a 2015 Kore Press Short Fiction Award Semifinalist and Salud America! featured
her comedic essay on breastfeeding. As a novelist she writes literary fiction with themes of history and a bit of speculative and comic book realism.

A Manhattan native, Stephanie holds degrees from the University of Michigan and Columbia University. For more information: www.stephanieninapitsirilos.com
