Dean Crawford

Visiting Associate Professor of English

I received an MFA from the Stanford Creative Writing Program, where I had a Mirrielees Fellowship.  Besides stories, articles, and essays, I’ve published The Lay of the Land, a novel (Viking-Penguin), and Shark, a celebration of sharks in their many varieties and a cultural history of our fraught relationship to these creatures (Reaktion Books).  I’m interested in modern and contemporary literature and environmental issues.
