About Michael Kennedy
Born in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Michael lives in Delaware, but has maternal roots in South Carolina. He has had a love of poetry and writing since the third grade. Michael continued writing and published student magazines through his undergraduate at Harvard and then before entering medical school. He continued creative writing informally throughout his residency and fellowship. Michael began writing short stories in 2002 and eventually started writing his first novel in 2019.
Michael has always loved a well told story that stretches his imagination. From “Their Eyes Were Watching God” to “Parable of the Sower”, and from “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon” to “Pan’s Labyrinth”, he marvels at human existence at the boundaries of possibility and seeks to bring this magic into his own writing.
Married, and with multiple cats, Michael practices Occupational Medicine in the Philadelphia area. He is a son, brother, husband, father, uncle, and grandfather who enjoys travel, good food, photography, African art, jazz and smiling faces. Born the same year “The Twilight Zone” premiered on television, he has always been drawn to horror and science fiction.
