Susan Earl

Born and raised in the Bronx, for the past forty years Susan Earl has lived in Thunderbolt, Georgia, a former fishing and shrimping community fifteen minutes from downtown Savannah.

In the 1970s, she was a member of the Cummington Community of the Arts in the Berkshires, the setting for WE PART TO MEET AGAIN. Later, while an artist-in-residence at the Ossabaw Island Project on a magical, unspoiled island off Savannah's coast, she moved south.

She's taught photography at the Savannah College of Art and Design, worked at the historic Georgia Infirmary, and volunteered as a Writing Fellow for the Deep Center.

Earl is co-author--with Tom Kohler-- of the award-winning, non-fiction, WADDIE WELCOME & THE BELOVED COMMUNITY, and author of IN THE DARK and HARRINGTON'S WAY, two novels set in Savannah.
