JV Troops

Author/ Narrator

JV Troops is Local’s most successful writer, who has spent decades teaching creative writing and chronicling the history of Local. A reflective storyteller with a background in literature, JV often straddles the line between personal memory and collective history. His work is rooted in the belief that stories shape how people see themselves — and that understanding the past is the only way forward. Though thoughtful and measured in speech, his writing often carries a sharp edge.
