Join us for a United We Stand program on Humanities at Play with award-winning Nevada author Naseem Jamnia. During the first hour of our program, we will play one night, hot springs; the second hour of our program will consist of an interactive Q&A and interview where we will learn more about Naseem’s work, radical writing, inclusivity and social justice, and more.
Naseem Jamnia is the Judith A. Markowitz award-winning author of fantasy novella The Bruising of Qilwa, which was nominated for the Crawford, Locus, and World Fantasy awards. Their middle grade horror debut, Sleepaway, comes out from Aladdin in 2025. A Persian-Chicagoan and child to Iranian immigrants, Naseem lives with their husband and four furred creatures outside of Reno, NV.
