About me
Jonathan Odermann grew up on a ranch north of Medora, North Dakota. After a short time working as a mechanical engineer in the city, Jonathan and his wife Marie returned to the Badlands to raise cattle on the family ranch. Much of Jonathan’s poetry is inspired by the mechanical, emotional, and physical ups and downs familiar to rural agricultural life. Over the past few years, Jonathan has expanded his writing to document contemporary local happenings and historical legends of Montana and the Dakotas. So far, Jonathan has published two books of poetry entitled Good Old Grey and The Dog-Gone Fencing Blues.
