About the Book

Character Witness is a memoir about a son's relationship with his mother, chronicling her struggle with mental illness, addiction, and poverty while exploring how the son's troubles as a young man began to mirror hers.

About the Author :
Jason Brown earned his MFA from Cornell University, and he was a Stegner Fellow and Truman Capote Fellow at Stanford University, where he taught as a Jones Lecturer. He has received fellowships from the Yaddo and Macdowell colonies and from the Saltonsall Foundation. He taught for many years in the MFA program at the University of Arizona and now teaches in the MFA program at the University of Oregon. He has published two books of short stories, Driving the Heart and Other Stories and Why the Devil Chose New England For His Work. His stories have won several awards and appeared in Best American Short Stories, The Atlantic, Harper's, TriQuarterly, and other magazines and anthologies. Several of his stories have been performed as part of NPR's Selected Shorts, and his collection Why The Devil Chose New England For His Work was chosen as a summer reading pick by National Public Radio. His third collection of stories entitled A Faithful But Melancholy Account of Several Barbarities Lately Committed was published in 2019. Stories from the new collection have appeared or will appear in Southern Review, Prairie Schooner (winning their editor's prize and receiving special mention in the back of Best American Short Stories), Electric Literature, Bellevue Review, Dalhousie Review, and the Editor's Prize from the Missouri Review. Brian Wiggins is a Voice Arts and One Voice Award-nominated voice actor, and has lent his talents to clients such as Southern Comfort, Netflix, Champion, Tyson Foods, and Santa Helena Winery, as well as nearly 100 audiobook and narration projects, including the award-winning Frith Chronicles series. In 2022 he published his first book, The Narrator's Guide to the Universe of Audiobooks. While born in the sleepy South Jersey town of Medford (where fun goes to die), he's been living in Philadelphia for the last twenty years and proudly calls it home with his wife, and their two rescue dogs Dakota and Hurley. When not fighting evil, ne'er-do-wells, and dastards via narrating a great audiobook, he can be found putting his character voice skills to the test while running Dungeons & Dragons games for his friends, or teaching Brazilian jiu jitsu.
