Connected as Eric Kraft (268 friends)
Eric Kraft grew up in Babylon, New York, on the South Shore of Long Island, where he was for a time co-owner and co-captain of a clam boat, which sank. He taught school in the Boston area for a while, moonlighting as a rock music critic for the Boston Phoenix. Since then, he has undertaken a variety of hackwork to support the Kraft ménage and the writing of The Personal History, Adventures, Experiences & Observations of Peter Leroy. He and his wife, Madeline, have two sons, Scott and Alexis. In the past, Kraft received a fellowship from the National Endowment for the Arts; was, briefly, chairman of PEN New England; and was awarded the John Dos Passos Prize for Literature.
