- Neko Case was born on September 8, 1970 in Alexandria, Virginia, USA. She is an actress and composer, known for Hell Ride (2008), The Astronaut Farmer (2006) and Zacharia Farted (1998).
- She's just as much a fan of Cajun and Creole food as of borshcht (her family's Ukrainian), and, while not a fan of computers, she's into low-tech art like pinhole photography.
- Her family is of Ukrainian descent.
- Her surname was changed from Shefschenko when the family immigrated to America in the 1940s.
- Studying at the Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
- "I just like things to be incredibly archaic all the time".
- I wanted to write songs that were timeless. Not that I consider myself in the same league as Willie Nelson and Harlan Howard, but maybe just something more like a novel than a short story.
- I don't even touch an instrument unless I feel like it. I need to compartmentalize.
- I'm really into folk tales, and how people view folklore as something people used to do. There's no reason why we can't write those things now. Time isn't over, and the human race isn't over - yet.
- I miss having greyhounds in the house - they're funny creatures.
