George Michelsen Foy

Teaches at Brooklyn Public Library

George Michelsen Foy‘s 2011 book, Zero Decibels: The search for absolute silence, constitutes both a hunt for different kinds of void, and a meditation on how to achieve a better balance between various expressions of noise and silence. His latest non-fiction book: Finding North: How navigation makes us human, was published this summer by Flatiron/Macmillan. 

He’s the author of thirteen novels under “GF Michelsen” at University Press of New England, Bantam/Doubleday, Viking, Bastei Lubbe (Germany) and Editions Globophile (France). His long-form non-fiction has been published in Harper’s, Rolling Stone et al; short fiction with Apeiron, Notre Dame Review, Washington Square Journal, et al. Foy earned an NEA fellowship in fiction, lives in New York and New England, teaches writing at NYU and once walked backwards through the “Peter Pan” ride in Disneyland.
