About Vince Reiman

Hi. I’m Vince (they/he), a Black queer writer of popular history.

American history is not a neutral inheritance. I recover underrepresented lives from the archives and tell the national story again, whole.

I am currently writing a book that reconstructs the founding of America, from 1775-1800, through the lives and perspectives of Black Americans, Indigenous peoples, and the working-class.

In 2025, a health scare reminded me to treat life as the sacred gift that it is. I left a thirteen-year career in engineering to pursue my longtime calling as a writer.

I live in Brooklyn with my two cats.

Every day is my joy.
