Zach Dodson is a designer, teacher, and award-winning practitioner of the narrative arts in many forms. He founded featherproof books, which has published over 30 genre-bending books. True to its hybrid nature, his own work takes many forms including illuminated novels, games, television, and academic research. His most recent novel, Bats of the Republic, was published by Doubleday. It won Print magazine’s Best of Design Award, Washington Post Notable Book of the Year, and Design Observer 50 Books of 2015. He is currently working on KUU, a companion book and video game which combines traditional print design and creative writing with new approaches in interactive fiction and visual narrative. A book chapter on his process appears in The Experimental Book Object (Routledge, 2023).
