Author: Sean Prentiss

Sean Prentiss, 2015 winner of the National Outdoor Book Award for History/Biography, has lived in most parts of the United States–the East Coast, Florida, the Rocky Mountains, the Great Basin, the Pacific Northwest, the Midwest, and now New England. And wherever he has lived, writing and the power of stories have always been a part of his life. He is the author of Finding Abbey: A Search for Edward Abbey and His Hidden Desert Grave, the co-editor of an anthology on the craft of creative nonfiction, entitled The Far Edges of the Fourth Genre, and the co-author of Environmental and Nature Writer: A Craft Guide and Anthology (forthcoming 2016 from Bloomsbury Press). Sean also publishes magazine articles and is the creative editor for Backcountry Magazine. When he is not writing, traveling, canoeing, mountain biking, or drinking a dark beer, Sean teaches at Norwich University. There he runs the Norwich University Writers Series and the Chameleon Literary Journal.
