  <about><![CDATA[Julia Keller is the author of Back Home, a novel that tells the story of a Midwestern family altered beyond measure by the Iraq War.
    Eddie Browning is severely injured in Iraq, while serving there as a member of the National Guard. His wife, Denise, and his three children -- Rachel, Marcy and Robbie -- must adjust to his physical wounds as well as his traumatic brain injury.
    Julia Keller is also the author of Mr. Gatling's Terrible Marvel: The Gun That Changed Everything and the Misunderstood Genius Who Invented It (Viking, 2008), which will be published in paperback by Penguin in May 2009. It is the story of the brilliant but ultimately tragic technological pioneer, now mostly forgotten, who created the world's first working machine gun.
    Julia was born and raised in Huntington, West Virginia. She graduated from Marshall University, then later earned a doctoral degree in English Literature at Ohio State University.
    She was a Nieman Fellow at Harvard University and has taught at Princeton and Ohio State Universities, and the University of Notre Dame. She is an essayist for The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer on PBS. In 2005, she won the Pulitzer Prize for Feature Writing.
    Julia divides her time between Chicago and rural Ohio. ]]></about>    <gender>female</gender>
