Nate Burke
Nate Burke is a Bostonian (reluctantly) and Storyteller (enthusiastically). With Cape Verdean, Bajan, and Jewish roots, he’s channeled his mixed heritage into unique narratives that spotlight the fringes of society. A Brown University alum with a diverse career trajectory—from documentary shoots to post-production rooms—he found his true calling in the "Riverdale" writers' room, via the WB TV Writers' Workshop. By drawing from both his brilliant shower thoughts, and his incredibly deep well of niche racial traumas, Nate’s tales blur distinctions, welcoming readers into realms that are at once alien and profoundly personal.
