Elisabeth Vasquez Hein is a Filipina American writer and photographic artist based in Seattle, Washington. Influenced by her upbringing in disparate geographies, her work explores displacement, in-betweenness, and belonging. She has shared her work reflecting on mixed-race identity and cultural inheritance in artist talks and readings with the Photographic Center Northwest, the Richard Hugo House, Japanese Americans Citizen League, and Coffee & Grief. She holds a certificate in Fine Art Photography from PCNW, and a Master’s degree in Latin American Studies from the University of New Mexico. Her writing is featured in CRAFT and the Pinch, and is forthcoming in Bellingham Review and Silk Road Review. Instagram @fuzzybrowngirl
