EspañolSTEPHEN ELLIOTT (AUTHOR)
'Stephen Elliott' (born December 3, 1971) is an American author and activist living in San Francisco who has written and published six books. He is also the founder of the political action committee LitPAC, which holds readings by authors to raise money for progressive candidates.
Stephen Elliott grew up in Chicago, where in his teens he was made a ward of the court and placed in various state-run homes. He attended the University of Illinois and received his master's from Northwestern University. He was the Marsh McCall lecturer in Creative Writing at Stanford University.
Stephen Elliott was awarded the 2001 Stegner Fellowship from Stanford University, given to emerging writers in fiction and poetry.
Stephen Elliott went on the campaign trail and wrote a book about the 2004 U.S. presidential race, ''Looking Forward To It: or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying About It and Love the American Electoral Process'' (Picador, Oct 2004, ISBN 0312424159). His novel ''Happy Baby'' was edited by Dave Eggers and co-published by McSweeney's and MacAdam/Cage and was released in February 2004. The paperback of ''Happy Baby'' was published by Picador in January 2005. His most recent book, ''My Girlfriend Comes to the City and Beats Me Up'' (ISBN 1573442550), a collection of S&M erotica sometimes referred to as a sexual memoir was published by Cleis Press.
In April 2007 he published an essay about his experiment of not using the Internet for one month, writing "I could feel my attention span lengthening. I would think about problems until I figured them out."[1]
