Kent Gregory was born and raised in Louisville, Kentucky. After graduate school, he spent almost two decades teaching Classics and Writing at various colleges and universities while doing research in France. He eventually found his way to New Orleans where he met the love of his life. After Hurricane Katrina, he moved back to Kentucky with his wife where they live with their son, twin daughters, and two dogs. When he’s not writing or teaching or walking his dogs, he’s outdoors fly-fishing or upland bird hunting.view less
