Jerry Gabriel lives in Ithaca, New York with his wife, poet Karen Leona Anderson, and their hound Moxy. His first book of fiction, Drowned Boy, will be published in the fall of 2009 by Sarabande Books. It was the winner of the Mary McCarthy Prize in Short Fiction.

Mr. Gabriel, who holds degrees from The Ohio State University, Northern Arizona University and the University of Iowa, is a lecturer in the Engineering Communications Program at Cornell University and teaches creative writing through Cornell at Auburn, a university program for prisoners at New York's Auburn Correctional Facility. He also facilitates an online magazine of prison writing, Scope. Starting in the fall of 2008, he will be a visiting assistant professor of English at St. Mary's College of Maryland.

His short stories have appeared in One Story, Epoch, and Fiction, among other magazines. His work has been short-listed for a Pushcart Prize, and he was awarded an artist grant in 2004 by the New York Foundation for the Arts. He is currently at work on a novel, Resurrecting the Single Wing, about an Ohio high school football coach.
