About the Author

Nia Hefner is a poet and storyteller from the Susanville Indian Rancheria. Raised in Grizzly Flats, CA, they grew up surrounded by the wild beauty of the land and the weight of their own struggles. Through every storm, writing and their Native community became a lifeline—keeping their head above water when the floods came.

Their poetry carries the echoes of loss, resilience, and home. With words that honor both pain and healing, Nia Hefner writes to preserve memory, to navigate grief, and to offer a place of reflection for those who have ever felt unmoored.

Between Breath and Memory is their debut poetry collection—one that holds pieces of their heart, their journey, and perhaps, a piece of yours too.
