Author Biography
Ron Rindo lives in Pickett, Wisconsin with his wife and five children and teaches English at the University of Wisconsin--Oshkosh. He has published three short story collections, most recently Love in An Expanding Universe (New Rivers Press, 2005), and his writing has also appeared in a variety of magazines and journals. His essay, "Gyromancy," appears in The Best American Essays 2010. Ron began taking guitar lessons at the age of nine and played at coffee houses and bars during his college years before settling on the less nocturnal and more family-friendly life of an English professor. He now combines his interests in playing the guitar and reading literature by setting the poetry of Emily Dickinson, Robert Frost, and other poets to music.
