Autorenporträt
Author, Shelby Raebeck grew up on Long Island's East End in the hamlet of Amagansett and later returned to live in neighboring Springs. He is author of the critically acclaimed story collection, LOUSE POINT: STORIES FROM THE EAST END, the novels, WONDERLESS and AMAGANSETT '84, and the one-person, two-act play, FREMONT'S FAREWELL. Raebeck has been celebrated as "that rare East End writer who portrays local folks trying to get through the day" (Mark Segal, The East Hampton Star), as a writer with a deep sense of the East End's land and seascapes who "renders the glorious East End few visitors or second homeowners get to see" (Joan Baum, Southampton Press), and as "a local through and through, who doesn't flinch from the downside of the place he calls home" (Beth Young, East End Beacon).
