Autorenporträt

Joseph G. Anthony moved from Manhattan�s Upper West Side to Hazard, Kentucky in 1980. Anthony, an English professor for 35 years, regularly contributes essays and poems to anthologies, including a poem and story in Kentucky�s Twelve Days of Christmas. His most recent novel, Wanted: Good Family (Bottom Dog Press) was described by the Lexington Herald-Leader as �masterfully written and well grounded in Kentucky history and mannerisms [exploring] race, class, relationship and the potential for change.� His previous books include two short story collections, Camden Blues and Bluegrass Funeral plus two novels�Peril, Kentucky, and Pickering�s Mountain. Appalachian Heritage�s said of Pickering that: �Anthony balances multiple voices with restraint�[he makes] us feel for their individual pain and sorrow, their prejudice and greed and lack of guile and fully-realized humanity.� Anthony lives in Lexington, Kentucky with his wife of forty years, Elise Mandel. They have three grown children.
