Autorenporträt
Mia Wolff grew up drawing, reading, and climbing trees before arriving at Pratt Institute to study painting. From there she joined the Big Apple Circus, subsequently going on the road with a three ring show as the catcher in a double trapeze act. Returning to NYC, she went back to painting (wolffland.com) and making books (Catcher, Bread & Wine, Eye Feed ). Her latest, The Empty Lot (2024), is a long monograph/graphic novel that is akin to an operatic roller coaster in paint and ink. She currently lives in Brooklyn.
