David Hanig

David Hanig grew up in Chicago and has since lived in the Pacific Northwest. For over four decades, he worked in public service: initially with community mental health programs and later as a senior manager in Washington State’s Medicaid program. Following six years as a Senior Policy Analyst for the state Senate, he served as a Vice-President of a national health care consulting firm. Now retired, he lives in Olympia, Washington, where he gardens, practices yoga and studies mysticism and write. Hanig published his first book, “In Every Breath a Prayer”, in 2020 – an account in verse and prose describing his spiritual odyssey transitioning from profound darkness to illuminated grace.  Hanig will publish his first volume of poetry this fall.
