Luke Stoffel (b. 1978) grew up as a gay Catholic schoolboy in small-town Iowa, where his imagination stretched far beyond the cornfields. Now an accomplished artist and author, his work explores spirituality through a vibrant, pop fantasy lens, offering American audiences a glimpse into the world's rich cultural tapestries.Stoffel is the author of several books, including The Easy Bake Unicorn Cookbook, The Art of Tarot, and his debut memoir How to Win a Million Dollars and BEEP Glitter!, with a follow-up, In Over Your Head, set for release in 2026. His ongoing photography series, The Noble Path, reflects his travels across 40+ countries, a journey sparked by the creative revelation of stepping off a plane in Thailand and discovering a world beyond the confines of Christ.Recognized by GLAAD as one of NYC's top LGBTQ+ artists, Stoffel's work has been featured by amfAR, the Matthew Shepard Foundation, and in The New York Times, Huffington Post, and AM New York. His art and photography have appeared on Bravo's Million Dollar Listing, Hawaiian Airlines Magazine, and the cover of Next Magazine. He has exhibited in iconic New York venues, including the Puck Building, The Art Directors Club, and New World Stages.
