Her debut book, Dust & Dreams: Roadmap of the American Soul, was written in celebration of the Rout 66 centennial. A lyrical memoir told in the voice of the Mother Road herself, the book traces a century of American becoming through the travelers, towns, and landscapes that shaped her. A renaissance woman who's done everything from forklift driving to party clowning, Crystal began her career as a story editor for Bravo, MTV, and VH1 before transitioning into performance, audiobook narration, and book editing. She holds a BFA and MA from New York University and continues to explore the intersections of collective memory, mythic voice, and the sacredness of motion. Read More Read Less
