CV

Hi,

I’m Marah Blake.

In addition to writing, I have a background in dramaturgy and performance. I was a library paraprofessional for over a decade and now work as an editor.

I am an avid bird watcher and forever fan of rhinoceroses.

I received a BFA in Theater from Cornish College of the Arts and an MFA in Creative Writing from Rutgers University-Camden.
