Gary Gramling

Gary Gramling is an award-winning writer and editor for Sports Illustrated, and formerly of Sports Illustrated Kids. He spent his childhood in Connecticut as a sports fanatic, rooting for the Baltimore Orioles and Pittsburgh Steelers. And, well, he never really grew up. He won SI's first-ever Emmy award for his writing on "A Boy Helps a Town Heal," and was the story editor on the acclaimed SI longform piece "Finding Danny Watkins." He currently resides in southwest Connecticut with his wife, Elizabeth, and two children who are surely on their way to being smarter and more talented than he is.
