Henry Award, and a National Magazine Award and been reprinted in The Best American Magazine Writing 2008.
He holds an M.F.A. from Vermont College of Fine Arts, a Ph.D. from the University of Copenhagen, and teaches fiction and creative nonfiction writing in the low residency M.F.A. Program of Fairleigh Dickinson University. He was born in New York City in 1944, but has lived in Europe since 1974, residing in Denmark for recent decades.
