Kyle Winkler

Kyle Winkler lives in northeast Ohio and teaches (mostly) writing and rhetoric at Kent State University - Tuscarawas. He also teaches/has taught Shakespeare, Science Fiction, and Literary Theory. His stories and essays have appeared in Conjunctions, The Rupture, The Rumpus, The Millions, and elsewhere.

He's working on a new novel set in the rural Midwest.

Originally from southwest Indiana, Kyle has also lived in St. Louis and Pittsburgh, where he earned an MFA and a PhD, respectively. Some of his earliest memories include watching John Carpenter's BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA with his mother; breaking into the old neighbor lady's house for iced tea; and running around pretending to be Batman but then getting stuffed into a trash can and rolled down the street by bullies.

He would go to the mat for Barbara Comyns.
