P. D. Callahan

In 1972, Paul David Callahan graduated from Hampshire College and drove directly to Maine to visit a friend. Ten years later he was still there working on the water, winter and summer, as a commercial herring fisherman. Callahan's crazy unplanned career is the subject of DOOR IN DARK WATER, a memoir of the people he loved, their collective moments of terror and temporary stardom, and a culture long since lost.

Callahan now lives outside of Boston, Massachusetts and has published several short works in literary magazines.
