An Evening with Aaron John Curtis

Join Writer's Block Bookstore in celebrating the release of Aaron John Curtis's Old School Indian! Meet Author Aaron John Curtis We're thrilled to welcome Miami author Aaron John Curtis for a special event celebrating the paperback release of his debut novel Old School Indian, an astonishing coming-of-middle-age debut about an Ahkwesáhsne man’s reluctant return home. Old School Indian is a striking exploration of the resonance of love and family, culture and history. About Aaron John Curtis A mixed-race member of the Akwesasne Nation, Turtle Clan- half his mother’s Mohawk Indian (Kanien’kehá:ka) and half his father’s Scotch-Irish. He was born in Syracuse, NY and attended Syracuse University as a Musical Theater Major when the program was ranked third in the country (he was in a Minorities in Theater group with Taye Diggs and did lights for Vera Farmiga’s one-woman La Vie En Rose).
