Rebecca Curtis is the author of the new story collection “Twenty Grand and Other Tales of Love and Money” (Harper Perennial).
The Village Voice called her “one of the more promising short story writers in America today.” George Saunders described her stories as “formally dazzling, funny, edgy, taut, and they absolutely sing with meaning. They are scary and heartbreaking, and after reading them you’ll see America differently.”
Her fiction has appeared in The New Yorker, Harper’s, McSweeney’s and n+1.
Rebecca is a recipient of the Rona Jaffe Foundation Writers’ Award and her work has been selected for the O. Henry Prize Stories. She lives in New York and teaches in the graduate writing program at Columbia University.
