Amy Monaghan

Amy Monaghan is a queer Los Angeles-based writer and photographic artist. She is a graduate of the MFA Screenwriting program at UCLA, where she was a 2019 winner of the annual Screenwriter's Showcase, and also holds a BFA in Fine Art Photography from Rochester Institute of Technology. In both her writing and visual art, Amy explores the nuances of memory, identity, and the sometimes futile desire to reconcile the present with the past.

While in residence, Amy will be working on an experimental novel and collage project about historic Grand Canyon photographers Ellsworth and Emery Kolb.
