Craig Fehrman

Craig Fehrman is a Ph.D. student in Yale’s English department and a freelance writer. He’s written for magazines (including New York and The American Prospect), newspapers (The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal), websites (Salon, Slate’s The Big Money), and blogs (Deadspin, The Millions). You can find a full archive of his writing here. He’s also working on a book about presidents and their books—and, more broadly, about how, when, and why we started expecting politicians to write books.

Craig grew up in Dillsboro, Indiana, and graduated from the University of Southern Indiana in 2007, majoring in English literature and psychology. Both Yale and Connecticut represent new experiences for him, but, so far, they’ve been good ones. He’s married to a beautiful and understanding woman named Candice, who works as an editor in Fairfield, Connecticut.
