Maya Rushing Walker is a writer, editor, and photographer working out of her 1787 farmhouse in northern New England. She loves far-flung places, both historical and modern, so she writes both historical fiction and contemporary fiction set in distant lands.

Maya graduated with a degree in international economics from Georgetown, and followed that up with a masters in East Asian Languages from Harvard and Ph.D. work at the University of Chicago in East Asian languages, specializing in medieval Japanese history.
