Tommy Orange

Tommy Orange is an American author renowned for his New York Times Bestselling book, There There. He graduated from the MFA program at the Institute of American Indian Arts and is a 2014 MacDowell Fellow and a 2016 Writing by Writers Fellow. Orange is an enrolled member of the Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes, and this aspect of his heritage significantly influences his writing in There There. His father was Cheyenne, while his mother was white, and she converted him to Christianity, rejecting his father's Native American beliefs. This conflict he experienced in his youth deeply informs the narrative of his debut novel. There There is regarded as one of the finest literary works of 2018 and is set to receive recognition for it.

Tommy Orange became a published novelist in 2018 with the novel There There. Below is a list of Tommy Orange's books in order of when they were originally released:
