Henry Kisor brings a distinctive perspective to both fiction and non-fiction. His Steve Martinez mystery series, set in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, features a deaf sheriff’s deputy solving crimes in a sparsely populated region where observation and reading people matters more than overhearing conversations.
His non-fiction includes What’s That Pig Outdoors? (1990), a memoir about growing up deaf, and Flight of the Gin Fizz (1997), about flying a small plane across America as a deaf pilot. Zephyr (1994) chronicles train travel, and Traveling with Service Animals (2019) draws on his later experiences. His children’s book One TV Blasting and a Pig Outdoors (1994) brings his story to younger readers.
