Dessa fell in love with language as a toddler—and she just never got over it. Now, Dessa works in most fields that traffic in words: she's recorded rap bangers as part of the fiercely independent Doomtree collective, released a live album with the Grammy-winning Minnesota Orchestra; contributed to The New York Times and National Geographic Traveler; delivered a TED Talk [ted.com] on the intersection of romance and neuroscience that's notched more than 4 million views; hosted two seasons of the Deeply Human [bbc.co.uk] radio program (BBC/American Public Media/iHeartMedia); and published a memoir recounting most of the above called My Own Devices, published by Dutton (Penguin Random House). She lives in Minneapolis and Manhattan, still tours in a rented van, and is probably eavesdropping on the neighboring table, listening for a word to add to the collection. You can listen to her music, read her writing, and check out the tour schedule at dessawander.com [dessawander.com] or find her on Instagram as Dessa, and on Facebook and Bluesky as dessadarling.
