Joshua Kagavi is a writer, artist, and designer. His various projects often explore early athletics history, racism and nationalism, retro games, ancient treasures, culture, and more.

Kagavi’s research into the life and tragic death of Black pioneer Jack Trice has unearthed spectacular discoveries and given crucial context to his legacy. Some of his rare archives include the only known original photo of Jack playing football for Iowa State University and a 1923 football jersey directly involved in his fatal game.

In collaboration with Pendleton Woolen Mills, Kagavi designed three custom stadium blankets for several major universities. These limited edition blankets were inspired by Jazz Age football history.

He has started writing the occasional story for a variety of publications including Smithsonian, History Channel, and more to come.

Kagavi loves traveling across the world with his wife and they live in a small California beach town with their grumpy wire fox terrier.
