Author Biography

Sena Jeter Naslund, a highly regarded author, was born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama. Her early experiences of insomnia led her to cultivate her storytelling abilities, while her high school years were marked by journalistic work and dedication to music as a cellist. Naslund declined a music scholarship at the University of Alabama in favor of Birmingham-Southern College, where she pursued English and creative writing. After completing her undergraduate studies, she further honed her skills at the University of Iowa, obtaining MA and PhD degrees, and subsequently embarked on a teaching career at the University of Montana before joining the University of Louisville faculty in 1972. In addition to her writing, Naslund established the Louisville Review as a literary journal and founded Fleur-de-Lis Press to support emerging writers. Currently, she serves as the program director for the MFA in Writing program at Spaulding University and holds the position of Distinguished Teaching Professor at the University of Louisville.
