We are delighted to welcome a new curator to the Pen Parentis
Literary Salons!
Brian Gresko is the editor of the anthology When I First Held
You: 22 Critically Acclaimed Writers on Fatherhood, forthcoming from
Berkley Books/Penguin on Father's Day, 2014. He has contributed to The Huffington
Post, and written about books and culture for Salon, TheAtlantic.com, The Daily Beast, The Paris Review
Daily, The LA Review of Books, The Rumpus, and numerous other
publications. Brian keeps a daily column on parenting and gender politics for Babble,
where he often writes about balancing his writing life with caring for his son.
In print, Brian's work has appeared in Glimmer Train Stories and Slice
Literary Magazine. He received his MFA in Creative Writing from The New
School, and studied film and literary theory at Oberlin College. Please visit his website for links and more information.
Brian will join us in September as we bid a fond farewell to our
fantastic first curator, Arlaina Tibensky – who will still attend Salons as a
regular, whenever she can fit it into her busy schedule. We are so honored to
have Brian join our ranks!
So if you are an author with kids – or know an author who is
also a parent who writes fiction that knocks your socks off, please email Brian
at info@penparentis.org - now booking Spring 2014!
| Snazzy Brian. |
