Erica Langston

Erica Langston grew up in Homestead, Florida, a sinking town cradled between the Everglades and a nuclear power plant. Her childhood was loud, and greatly defined by siblings, storms, swamps and shallow graves. She is a graduate of the University of Florida, a 2011-2013 Fulbright Scholar, and an MSc candidate in Environmental Studies at the University of Montana.
