Nomi Eve is the author of Henna House (Scribner) and The Family Orchard (Knopf) and has two new novels on the horizon: Girl of the Cave (Running Wild Press) and The Flood Lines (Regal House). Along the way, she’s been a Book of the Month Cub pick, a National Jewish Book Council featured author and a proud frequent flyer to hundreds of book clubs – because talking with readers is her absolute favorite part of being an author.

When she’s not writing, Nomi is cheering on emerging storytellers. She spent a decade dreaming up and building the Drexel MFA in Creative Writing, a vibrant low residency program known for its industry focus and craft-driven mentorship. She directs the MFA and is an assistant professor at Drexel University.

A member of the Historical Novel Society and the Tall Poppy Writers, Nomi tells the stories that tug at her – ones rooted in history and grounded in fierce and abiding love.

A born-and-bred Philly girl, Nomi earned her MFA from Brown University and still lives just a mile from her childhood home – proof that sometimes you can go home again. She loves her readers, her students, her family and her dog… though the order depends on the day!
