Michael Abramson

Michael Abramson is writer and documentarian looking back at a multi-decade career as a photojournalist primarily working for the Time-Life family of magazines. His debut novel, Rebecca Tree, published by Guernsey Books in 2016 was a semi-finalist in a previous Amazon Breakout Novel competition.

Publishers Weekly has said: "This fast-paced political thriller is a gripping story of family secrets and government corruption . . . With unexpected twists and political issues that ring true, this is a bang-up novel for anyone who enjoys a good conspiracy theory."

Michael Abramson has documented a wide range of subjects, from the conflict in Northern Ireland, street gangs in New York, the Wounded Knee occupation, and a barefoot doctor tending to untouchables in Calcutta, India. His photographic books include Palante, Young Lords Party; Inside Las Vegas with Mario Puzo; Roy Lichtenstein, Portrait of an Artist; Amy, the Story of a Deaf Girl; and Our Portion of Hell.

In addition, he is part of an invention team, which holds interactive mapping patents in the United States, Europe, and Japan.

He lives in Brooklyn, New York, with his wife Erika and their two rescue dogs--Snowy and Daniela.
