About the author

Brigid Hughes spent ten years at The Paris Review, where she worked as executive editor under the literary champion George Plimpton. After his death, Hughes decided there was a need for a new magazine dedicated to fiction. So began A Public Space, a quarterly literary journal that pursues the power of fiction and wider worldviews.
