Dan Kennedy is an American author, stage performer, and host of The Moth storytelling podcast in New York.[1][2]

Biography

Kennedy's writing first gained attention at McSweeney's, a literary website and quarterly journal. He then started performing on stage with New York-based storytelling collective The Moth in 2000, going on to become a host of the popular live events and podcast.[3] In 2003 he published his first book, Loser Goes First: My Thirty-Something Years of Dumb Luck and Minor Humiliation, with Random House. He followed his debut collection with a memoir in 2008 entitled Rock On: An Office Power Balled, which the New York Times described as "...a succession of gently mordant vignettes, with hilariously spot-on asides about media image-making".[4][5] He discussed the book, and his time working for Atlantic Records in New York,[6] with Terry Gross on NPR's "Fresh Air".[7] Kennedy's debut novel American Spirit [8] was released in 2013, receiving the coveted starred review from Publishers Weekly,[9] which heralded the book as having, "...far surpassed the creation of character and conjured an entity so alive in its knowledge of impending death that we're captured in a new idea of what it's like to live." In 2018, Wired Magazine celebrated the 10th anniversary of The Moth Podcast in [https://www.wired.com/story/moth-podcast-turns-10/ a profile] outlining its beginnings and rise from two thousand subscribers to forty-six million downloads per year. Kennedy's work has appeared in GQ Magazine and on the Peabody Award winning Moth Radio Hour, and has been published in multiple literary anthologies in Europe and the United States.[10][11]

In 2015 he began writing for television and film, and he sat on the judging committees of the 2017 PEN America Jean Stein Grant for Literary Oral History, and the 2017 Writers Guild of America East “Made in New York” Fellowship Program.[12][13]
