David Galef was born in the Bronx in 1959 and started writing shortly thereafter. He's a fiction writer, critic, poet, translator, and essayist because he can't seem to make up his mind what to specialize in. A shameless eclectic, he has published over a dozen books, including the novels Flesh and How to Cope with Suburban Stress, a Book Sense choice and one of Kirkus's Best Books of 2006.

His day job is professor of English and director of the creative writing program at Montclair State University.
