Biography
Anne Margaret Daniel writes and teaches in New York City. Her articles, essays, and reviews on literature, covering topics from Oscar Wilde's trials to Bob Dylan and High Modernism, have appeared in books, critical editions, magazines, and journals from "Isis" to the "Elysian Fields Quarterly" to "Hot Press" and "The Times Literary Supplement." She has just finished her first novel, and is currently writing about Scott Fitzgerald and Hollywood. She was educated at Harvard University, the University of Virginia School of Law, Georgetown University, and Princeton University. Whenever it is, and whatever else is going on, she'd rather be rereading "The Great Gatsby," listening to live music, or watching baseball. Contact her via @venetianblonde on Twitter, or by email at VenetianBlonde, through this website.
