Jason Van Tatenhove is a dynamic author, journalist, and artist based in the scenic Estes Park, Colorado. He proudly continues a family legacy of creativity as a third-generation artist and writer, drawing inspiration from his grandfather, a notable figure in the Abstract Expressionist Movement of the 1950s and 1960s in New York City. Jason's artistic talents are displayed in various Denver galleries, celebrating a heritage of artistic excellence. Jason's educational journey is as unconventional as his artistic pursuits, having studied fine arts at three universities. This reflects his free-spirited nature and unwavering commitment to creative and journalistic integrity. His writing career took off at the Estes Park Trail-Gazette, eventually leading to the establishment of The Colorado Switchblade. At this regional news outlet and accompanying podcast, Jason's investigative reporting, feature articles, and insightful commentary consistently engage his readership. In his literary works, Jason explores the realms of supernatural thrillers, political activism, and speculative science fiction. His portfolio includes fiction and non-fiction, with notable works such as ‘Colorado’s Chance: The Firewalker’ and ‘The Perils of Extremism.’ Jason is also recognized for his expertise in countering violent political extremism and misinformation. His contributions have been featured on platforms like MSNBC and CNN, and he has testified before Congress and collaborated with Georgetown Law’s Institute for Constitutional Advocacy and Protection as a consultant. Jason's home in the Colorado Rockies is a haven of creative chaos and inspiration, where he resides with his two teenage daughters, a wolfdog, and three cats. His close-knit community also includes his eldest daughter and granddaughter. In 2023, Jason navigated the profound loss of his wife and writing partner of thirty years, Shilo, reflecting on their shared journey of life and creativity. With influences ranging from the punk and grunge scenes of Colorado to literary icons like Hunter S. Thompson, Jason's work embodies a life lived with authenticity and passion. His writing is a tribute to resilience, artistic expression, and the undying spirit of creativity.
