He holds a PhD in English and Journalism from the University of Oklahoma where he’s taught for over 20 years. He served as Poet Laureate for the State of Oklahoma in 2013/14\, and now travels full-time performing readings\, concerts\, workshops and speaking on creativity\, poetry\, and songwriting. \nNathan has published over 20 books. Most recent are his new collection of poems\, In the Days of Our Unrest\, the second in a series now known as the Pandemic Poems Project\, that deals with the year of Covid-19\, and a new travel memoir Just Another Honeymoon in France: A Vagabond at Large. Karma Crisis: New and Selected Poems\, was a finalist for the Paterson Poetry Prize and the Oklahoma Book Award. His earlier book\, Two Tables Over\, won the 2009 Oklahoma Book Award.

At over 100 episodes now\, in which Nathan reads a few poems from the book series and performs a song at the end\, now has an established following of loyal viewers. \nNaomi Shihab Nye said about Nathan’s book\, My Salvaged Heart: “Brave new world! The sizzle of couplings and uncouplings – attraction and romance\, ineffable magnetism\, mysterious as ever – but doused with a savory dose of Nathan Brown humor\, a tilted long-ranging eye that sees the next bend in the road even when he’s standing right here\, firmly planted.”
