Connor Wolfe (they/them) is a writer, photographer, and publisher whose work spans more than two decades and fourteen titles. Rooted in the literary and visual traditions of storytelling, their practice moves between image and language, often inhabiting the liminal space where the two meet. Drawing on the lineage of the Beat poets and folk singers, Wolfe's work is marked by impermanence and the quiet revelations of the road.
They founded Wayfarer Magazine and Wayfarer Books. Their writing has earned six Pushcart Prize nominations, the Gold Nautilus Medal for Poetry (2015), the Nautilus Silver Medal (2022), and multiple Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Awards. They have also served two terms on the Board of Directors of the Independent Book Publishers Association, given a TEDx talk at Yale, and earned a degree from Harvard University.
In 2024, they volunteered in the Collections Department at the Museum of Anthropology at Ghost Ranch, assisting in research for the repatriation of sacred objects under the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA). After wintering in the San Juan Mountains, Wolfe continues to travel and document in both photography and verse, alongside their three-legged black cat, momo.
