About
Nathan Vass has had work displayed in over thirty photography shows, designed a book and three album covers, including two for Neil Welch. His “My Favorite Things” tour at Seattle Art Museum was the highest-attended such tour there. Nathan is also the director of eight films, six of which have shown at festivals, and one of which premiered at Henry Art Gallery. He has owned a photography business, Two Photography, with Larry Huang, and photographed a dozen-plus weddings. Born in South Central LA, he holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Washington, and is also a prolific writer and sometime painter. Formerly a Hollywood resident, he still contributes film reviews to Erik Samdahl's site, Filmjabber. Read a Seattle Times review one of his solo shows here.
In addition, he holds a side job as a public bus driver, which he enjoys almost as much as directing films- if not slightly more so! He is a two-time winner of Metro’s Operator of the Month award and holds a record number of commendations. His blog, The View From Nathan’s Bus, details his adventures on the road and has been featured in more than fifteen news outlets including NPR, The Seattle Times, Bare Naked Bravery, Slog, the Stranger’s news and arts blog, KPLU, The Urbanist, The Seattle Review of Books, The Seattle Star, The SunBreak, The NW Urbanist, and more. His new book, The Lines That Make Us, is a Seattle bestseller, and is available at Elliott Bay and other area bookstores.
