David Ebenbach was born and raised in the great city of Philadelphia, home of America’s first library, first art museum, first public school, and first zoo, along with David’s very first stories and poems, which went on to become (deservedly) less famous than, for example, the zoo. Since those days he’s lived in Ohio, Wisconsin, Philadelphia again, New York, New Jersey, Indiana, and Ohio again, picking up some education (formal and otherwise) along the way, and he now lives very happily in Washington, DC. His poetry, fiction, and essays have been published in a wide variety of magazines, and in collections of fiction (Between Camelots, and, forthcoming, Into the Wilderness) and essays (The Artist’s Torah, forthcoming). David has received fellowships to the Vermont Studio Center and the MacDowell Colony, and an Individual Excellence Award from the Ohio Arts Council.
