Mike Merz Trivia

Mike Merz's favorite authors are Vladimir Nabokov and Robertson Davies.

His favorite artists are Kurt Schwitters, Gerhard Richter, Sigmar Polke, and Andreas Gursky. German-speakers, basically.

His favorite foods are Indian cuisine and sushi.

He's a Leo.

His favorite mixed drink is the pina colada (White Russian: close second), though he usually just drinks beer.
