about me

I’m Cyrus Norcross — a storyteller, filmmaker, and sometimes a wanderer when the road calls.

I’m from the Navajo Nation, where stories aren’t just told — they’re lived.

That idea has followed me everywhere: across theater stages, through the deserts of Iraq and Afghanistan, behind the camera, and into the quiet places most people pass by.

These days, I make films, take photos, and write — trying to catch whatever slips between the cracks.

Some of my work’s been published in places like Navajo Times, Indian Country Today, Violence of Action, and So Long: The Anthology of Poet Warrior Vol III.

It’s not about chasing headlines or moving fast.
It’s about seeing what’s real — and putting a little of it back into the world.

Sometimes it’s a film.
Sometimes a photograph.
Sometimes just a line in a notebook.

If you’ve ever felt the world slipping by too fast, if you’ve tried to hold onto something real —
you’re not alone.

Stick around. I’ll meet you out there.
