About Nancy Davis Kho

Nancy Davis Kho by Jennifer Graham Photography
Jennifer Graham Photography

Nancy Davis Kho is an author, speaker, and podcaster whose work has appeared in the Washington Post, San Francisco Chronicle, Adirondack Life, The Rumpus, The Toast, and numerous anthologies including Listen To Your Mother: What She Said Then, What We’re Saying Now (Putnam.) She’s been recognized as a Voice of the Year in the Humor Category by BlogHer and has been both champion and judge for international comedy-lit improv show Literary Death Match. Her book THE THANK-YOU PROJECT: Cultivating Happiness One Letter of Gratitude at a Time was published by Running Press in December 2019.

Nancy writes about “the years between being hip and breaking one” at MidlifeMixtape.com, and her Midlife Mixtape Podcast (available on all major podcast platforms) celebrates Gen Xers at midlife with humor, heart, and a really good beat. In August 2019, the Wall Street Journal named the Midlife Mixtape Podcast to its list of “8 Podcasts for Anyone Nervously Facing Retirement.” Nancy is from upstate New York and now lives with her husband and two daughters in Oakland, California.

Speaking Engagements

Nancy is a sought-after presenter and emcee at conferences and reading series. Past engagements include National Charity League, Mom2.0 Summit, Watermark Conference for Women, and Literary Death Match (as judge and participant.) She combines an engaging, funny delivery with deep knowledge of subject matter, and an ability to shape her talks to support your organization’s goals. An overnight pivot to virtual book clubs and events in March 2020 has made Nancy adept at captivating virtual audiences to ensure they stay engaged throughout her talks, and come away feeling inspired.

  • Signed, Sealed, Delivered: How gratitude letters create connection, community, and joy
  • There’s No Emoji for This: Analog letters in a digital world
  • Midlife Mixtape: Thriving in “the years between being hip and breaking one”
