She is best known for her essay "The Opposite of Loneliness,"[2] which went viral and was viewed over 1.4 million times in ninety-eight different countries after her death in a car crash just five days after she graduated magna cum laude from Yale University.[3] BiographyKeegan was born in Boston and raised in the suburb of Wayland, Massachusetts. She attended Buckingham Browne & Nichols in Cambridge before matriculating to Yale University in the autumn of 2008.[4] At Yale, Keegan majored in English and served as president of the Yale College Democrats during her junior year.[5] She was to begin a job at The New Yorker following her graduation from Yale,[6] but died in a car crash on Cape Cod, only five days after the graduation ceremony.[7] The Opposite of LonelinessA collection of Keegan's works, both fiction and non-fiction, was published posthumously by Scribner on April 8, 2014.[8] The book is named after her graduation essay and features an introduction by the American author Anne Fadiman, who was one of Keegan's professors at Yale. "The Opposite of Loneliness" was well received and quickly became a New York Times bestseller. The New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof dedicated a column to the book, hailing it "a triumph" and urging readers to reflect on what they really want from life.[9] Positive reviews of the text have been garnered from the Chicago Tribune,[10] the Boston Globe,[11] and the Financial Times,[12] among many others. Other works"Even Artichokes Have Doubts"On September 30, 2011, Keegan published an essay in the Yale Daily News entitled "Even Artichokes Have Doubts," lamenting the high percentage of graduates who enter into the fields of finance and consulting.[13] The piece captured the attention of author Kevin Roose, who worked for the New York Times’ financial website DealBook at the time. Roose contacted Keegan and asked her to adapt her essay for DealBook, which published her piece as "Another View: The Science and Strategy of College Recruiting" on November 9, 2011.[14] Roose reports that it was DealBook’s "best-performing post in months."[15] He went on to feature Keegan in his book Young Money: Inside the Hidden World of Wall Street’s Post-Crash Recruits (2014), and dedicated it to her memory. Keegan also appeared on National Public Radio's All Things Considered to discuss the piece.[16] "Why We Care About Whales"In September, 2009, Keegan published an essay in the Yale Daily News entitled "Why We Care About Whales," considering the inconsistencies of empathy. The essay has been anthologized in The Broadview Anthology of Expository Prose.[17] IndependentsThe musical Independents, for which Keegan had written the book, debuted at the New York International Fringe Festival in August 2012. It was one of twelve works - out of nearly two hundred - that was selected for an encore series in September.[18] Utility MonsterKeegan's play Utility Monster premiered at the Wellfleet Harbor Actors' Theater on Cape Cod on May 25, 2013. The play follows two fifteen-year-olds struggling with ideas of privilege and social responsibility.[19] "Cold Pastoral"This short story was published by the New Yorker on September 27, 2012.[20] It also appears in the book The Opposite of Loneliness. "Reading Aloud""Reading Aloud" was read by Rita Wolf on NPR's Selected Shorts program on September 11, 2011.[21] References1. ^{{cite news|title=Marina Keegan, Journalist and Playwright, Dies at 22|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2012/05/30/business/marina-keegan-journalist-and-playwright-dies-at-22.html?_r=0|accessdate=11 October 2014|agency=The New York Times|date=May 29, 2012}} {{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Keegan, Marina}}2. ^{{cite news|title=KEEGAN: The Opposite of Loneliness|url=http://yaledailynews.com/crosscampus/2012/05/27/keegan-the-opposite-of-loneliness/|accessdate=11 October 2014|agency=Yale Daily News}} 3. ^{{cite news|title=What’s the Word for ‘The Opposite of Loneliness’?|url=http://mariashriver.com/blog/2014/04/the-opposite-of-loneliness-marina-keegan/|accessdate=11 October 2014|agency=Maria Shriver}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=Marina Keegan ’08: A young alumna who "made something happen to this world"|url=http://www.bbns.org/page.cfm?p=1024|website=bbns.org|accessdate=11 October 2014}} 5. ^{{cite news|title=Keegan ’12 remembered for writing, activism|url=http://yaledailynews.com/blog/2012/05/27/keegan-12-remembered-for-writing-activism/|accessdate=11 October 2014|newspaper=Yale Daily News}} 6. ^{{cite news|title=Cold Pastoral|url=http://www.newyorker.com/books/page-turner/cold-pastoral|accessdate=11 October 2014|work=The New Yorker}} 7. ^{{cite news|title=Cape Cod car crash kills recent Yale University graduate, Marina Keegan|url=http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/cape-car-crash-kills-yale-university-graduate-marina-keegan-article-1.1085418|accessdate=11 October 2014|newspaper=Daily News|location=New York}} 8. ^The Opposite of Loneliness (New York, 2014) 9. ^The column also featured The Promise of a Pencil: How an Ordinary Person Can Create Extraordinary Change (2014), by Adam Braun. https://www.nytimes.com/2014/04/06/opinion/sunday/kristof-her-first-and-last-book.html 10. ^{{cite web|url=http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2014-03-21/features/ct-books-0322-editors-choice-20140321_1_marina-keegan-loneliness-essay|title=Editor's choice: 'The Opposite of Loneliness' by Marina Keegan|publisher=|accessdate=14 August 2017}} 11. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.bostonglobe.com/arts/books/2014/04/07/review-the-opposite-loneliness-essays-and-stories-marina-keegan/u9gvKsB0d25xY9cf6jDwZI/story.html|title=Review of ‘The Opposite of Loneliness: Essays and Stories’ by Marina Keegan - The Boston Globe|publisher=|accessdate=14 August 2017}} 12. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.ft.com/cms/s/2/473c6bc8-f6f3-11e3-8ed6-00144feabdc0.html#axzz36T5YHyqE|title=Financial Times|website=Financial Times|accessdate=14 August 2017}} 13. ^{{cite web|url=http://yaledailynews.com/weekend/2011/09/30/even-artichokes-have-doubts/|title=Even artichokes have doubts|publisher=|accessdate=14 August 2017}} 14. ^{{cite web|url=https://dealbook.nytimes.com/author/marina-keegan/|title=DealBook - The New York Times|website=dealbook.nytimes.com|accessdate=14 August 2017}} 15. ^{{cite web|url=http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2014/04/remembering-marina-keegan.html|title=Remembering Marina Keegan|publisher=|accessdate=14 August 2017}} 16. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.npr.org/2012/02/05/146434854/stopping-the-brain-drain-of-the-u-s-economy|title=Stopping The 'Brain Drain' Of The U.S. Economy|website=NPR.org|accessdate=14 August 2017}} 17. ^{{cite web|url=http://yaledailynews.com/blog/2009/09/11/keegan-why-we-care-about-whales/|title=Keegan: Why we care about whales|publisher=|accessdate=14 August 2017}} 18. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2012/08/19/theater/marina-keegans-independents-at-the-fringe.html|title=Marina Keegan’s ‘Independents’ at the Fringe|first=Larry|last=Rohter|date=16 August 2012|publisher=|accessdate=14 August 2017|via=NYTimes.com}} 19. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.bostonglobe.com/lifestyle/style/2013/05/21/marina-keegan-play-utility-monster-premieres-wellfleet-harbor-actors-theater/PnQXKInbZlhHqZNJwpWYPI/story.html|title=Marina Keegan’s play ‘Utility Monster’ premieres at Wellfleet Harbor Actors Theater - The Boston Globe|publisher=|accessdate=14 August 2017}} 20. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.newyorker.com/books/page-turner/cold-pastoral|title=Cold Pastoral|website=The New Yorker|accessdate=14 August 2017}} 21. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.selectedshorts.org/fall-2011-selected-shorts-radio-schedule/|title=Radio and Podcast Schedule - Selected Shorts|publisher=|accessdate=14 August 2017}} 10 : American women journalists|1989 births|2012 deaths|Writers from Boston|Yale University alumni|People from Wayland, Massachusetts|Road incident deaths in Massachusetts|21st-century American women writers|21st-century American non-fiction writers|Buckingham Browne & Nichols School alumni |
