Stephanie Grant is a writer and teacher of writing. She grew up outside of Boston, MA. She received her BA from Wesleyan University, CT and studied creative writing at New York University.

Grant writes about female embodiment, which is another way to say she writes about women’s and girls’ bodies, including their sexuality, genders, and race, and how their bodies are frequently the site where struggles personal and political, existential and social get expressed in American culture.

Grant has taught writing at The Ohio State University, Mount Holyoke College, and American University in Washington, DC where she currently directs the MFA Program. She is known for fine-grained teaching of craft, ranging from narrative arc to sentence structure, and is available for guest workshops.
