A Writer, Photographer, & Filmmaker based out of Chicago.
My name is Ian J. Battaglia, & I am a multidisciplinary artist based out of Chicago.
My writing spans criticism, fiction, essays, & beyond. I’m currently working on a novel & other fiction, and recently returned to blogging and writing a newsletter. I write about books at The Chicago Review of Books & about Japanese language learning at Tofugu.
My photography is primarily in street photography and portraiture, though I am always making new photographs.
I pride myself on the depth of my interests and curiosity, and enjoy reading, studying Japanese, and practicing fighting games in my free time.
Thank you for checking out my work, and get in contact here.
