Chicago: the Typeface

Evan Nicole Brown is a Brooklyn-based writer, editor, and publisher. Born and raised in Mid-City LA, she graduated from Bard College in 2016 with a joint degree in Literature and Written Arts focusing on short fiction. Since then, she has worked in advertising as a copywriter, book publishing as a junior literary agent, and written for various outlets including Ploughshares, office magazine, Chicago Magazine, Okay Player, and Atlas Obscura. Her interests include culture + identity, art, music, design, environments, and feelings. Her print publication, Double Space Magazine, focuses on the artistic process and its many drafts & is dedicated to creating room for revision. The only reason she’ll now mention that she’s a Virgo sun / Capricorn rising is so that people know she works really hard :~) She has always been a writer (her parents hoard her childhood musings as evidence) and is passionate about using her voice as a young black woman to add sorely-needed nuance to today’s conversations.
