Christopher Paul Brown is known for his exploration of the unconscious and the serendipitous. This year his work has appeared in twelve periodicals  and one hardcover book. His first photography sale was to the Standard Oil Company of Indiana and his video You Define Single File was nominated for the Golden Gate Award at the 47th San Francisco International Film Festival. He earned a BA in Film from Columbia College Chicago in 1980.

Frances Lefkowitz lent us her story Octopus for the Fall 2020 issue of NUNUM and after we blended it up with the art of Tracy Whiteside we found ourselves with something we couldn't wait to share with the world. 

Frances was kind enough to give us a little of her time and by now you know exactly what the first thing we asked her was.

Frances, what was the first book you remember picking and reading by yourself?
