Brent Olson lives in Big Stone County, on the edge of the prairie in western Minnesota, but in his life as a working journalist he's filed articles from 20 countries on six continents. This has led him to want to change the world he lives in, through his work as a county commissioner, and create new worlds in his two recent novels, "Angr" and "Between the Helpless and the Darkness." In this time of news and information tailored so everyone can hear only what they want to hear, he presents information that will leave everyone just a little unsettled. Olson is a Big Stone County Commissioner and a 2012 Bush Foundation Fellow.
