Anthony DeCurtis

I grew up in New York City, where I currently live, though for two separate five-year periods I lived in Bloomington, Indiana, and Atlanta, Georgia. I attended Hunter College and then Indiana University, where I earned a PhD in American literature. I am a Distinguished Lecturer in the creative writing program at the University of Pennsylvania. I won a Grammy in the "Best Album Notes" category for my essay accompanying the Eric Clapton bos set, Crossroads. I live in New York City with my daughter Francesca.
