Michelle Ruiz Keil is a Latinx author based in Portland, Oregon. She is a 2020 Literary Lions honoree and a Hedgebrook residency recipient. Her debut novel All of Us with Wings was published in 2019 and praised by the New York Times as “a transcendent journey.”
Her two published novels draw on mythology, punk rock, and Bay Area/Pacific Northwest culture to tell coming-of-age stories with elements of magical realism. Both books feature diverse casts and explore identity, found family, and belonging through a lens rooted in Latin American storytelling traditions.
