Ross Victory is an award-winning author, music artist, entrepreneur, and former English teacher, whose life’s work revolves around the power of storytelling, personal transformation, and advocacy. Inspired by a lifelong love for narrative sparked by his father, Ross channels his experiences into impactful literature and music that resonate deeply with readers and listeners alike.

Inspired by his father’s love for writing and travel, Ross developed a passion for storytelling and travel, collecting library cards across the U.S. and venturing internationally to gain new perspectives. These experiences enrich his writing, with each book drawing from a wide range of experiences in a distinctive, emotive style and vivid imagery, establishing Ross as a compelling voice in contemporary literature.

A native Angeleno, Ross extends his influence as an advocate and community leader. He serves on the board of the Los Angeles Bi+ Task Force, championing representation for Bi+ Black men and MSPEC young adults, and has volunteered extensively with organizations like Shower of Hope and Covenant House. His advocacy extends into his educational contributions, where he continues to shape minds and inspire change through custom program development and teaching. Recognized in publications like LA Weekly, LA Blade, and LA Progressive, Ross is celebrated for his commitment to personal growth, representation, and storytelling as tools for empowerment.

In 2024, Ross shared his insights on storytelling at Medium.com’s Writer’s Conference and the Annual International Bisexual Research Conference, emphasizing the transformative power of narratives in self-advocacy. Through literature, music, and his community work, Ross Victory creates immersive, reflective experiences that uplift, liberate and invite his audience to consider their own journeys of self-discovery.

BOOK REVIEWS

Writer's Digest, Nicole Howard 

"I’m overwhelmed by the *gorgeous* language in this book...descriptive magic that reminds me of Alice Sebold’s breathtaking phrasing. So many stellar descriptions stopped me in my tracks so that I could turn the phrasing around and around in appreciation. Very well done. As the sensory details continue to bring the story to life, we find ourselves carried along in a fine cadence, as the plot progresses well, with no lulls in the middle. There is never a weak portion of the story."

Penguin Random House, Michael McConnell

"...Victory is a talented writer. He has written a compelling page-turner in a style that is personally reflective. Victory’s representation of his father bursts with love and awe. The questions of family, loyalty, honor, and truth emerge and will resonate with just about everyone. With an incredible ending that you must read to believe, this book does not disappoint." 

African American Literature Book Club, Robert Fleming
"Urgent, courageous words from a Black man confronting sexual orientation, guilt, cultural prejudice, and gender bias. It takes a lot to stand up."
