Darrin 1831 CollinsDarrin 1831 Collins is an author, educator, scholar, and international martial arts competitor. Born and raised in Chicago, Collins is a global traveler and pulls inspiration for his characters from his many international adventures. As a Chicago hig school science teacher, he is committed to integrating themes (identity, social justice, judicial policy) into his writing that directly relate to and inspire the youth with which he works. His debut novel, Native Invisibility, aimed to intensify and increase the provocativeness of the conversation and evaluation of these subjects by incorporating elements of science fiction. In the No Mountain High Enough, children's book series, Collins beautifully exposes the reality of co-parenting beyond divorce and the relevance and power of maintaining his presence in his daughter's life.
