A long-time visitor, author and illustrator Christopher Noxon moved to Ojai full-time three years and got busy right away with volunteering and sharing his talents. He joined the Ojai Studio Artist as one of the 17 new artists this year. The Tour is free this year and takes place October 8-10. We discuss the great expansion of the tour from 50 to 67 artists, how the group has made a major resurgence in recent years and why it is so important to the community. The author of four books and many feature articles for the New York Times, The New Yorker magazine and Los Angeles Times, he worked in journalism for many years, and was also "domestic first responder," raising his two sons, when his ex-wife's career as a writer, show creator and showrunner, "Weeds" and "Orange is the New Black," took off. As a long-form feature journalist he has broken important stories, such as being the first to report on Mel Gibson's ties to an ultraconservative Catholic sect. Noxon's book, "Good Trouble: Lessons from the Civil Rights Playbook," caused controversy recently, having been banned by conservative school board members in Virginia Beach. We talk about Ojai's changing cultural landscape since the pandemic and the surge of youthful energy, the importance of art to Ojai's identity, and much more. We also talk candidly and with great sincerity about loss, grief and finding your way forward. We did not talk about gesso recipes, the Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows or David Milch's posthumous memoir.

Christopher Noxon is an author, artist and contributing journalist for The New Yorker, Details, The New York Times Magazine, and Salon. He has authored three books, one of which "Good Trouble: Lessons from the Civil Rights Playbook" recently made headlines after it was placed on a banned book list in Virginia Beach as a prop of conservative political theatre. His first book "Rejuvenille" landed him as guest on Good Morning America and The Colbert Report in the same day, and Christopher shares what it was like hanging out with Stephen Colbert "out of character" in the green room. But most importantly of all, Christopher shares notes from navigating the recent profound loss of his 20 year old son Charlie, who tragically passed away on their family ski trip together in 2020. Christopher shares the difference between trauma and grief, the beauty he experienced mourning within the jewish tradition of "sitting shiva", and the not so subtle way Charlie recently snuck into Christopher's art unbeknownst to him. This episode is a resource for learning how best to support friends or family who are experiencing profound loss, how you don't have to "move on" to move forward, and how Unconditional Love transcends the impermanence of form.
