Author: Ed Friedman

Bronx-born and bred, Ed is commitment-phobic when it comes to literary forms as he flits from short plays, to short non-fiction, and to short fiction (at least he’s got the short thing down). He is, however, unequivocal in his support for NY sports teams and the Times crossword with which he has a high degree of success in solving except for Saturdays when he resists the urge to jump out his eighth-story window. Ed’s work has been seen in Bright Flash Literary Review, Slackjaw, Fleas on the Dog, The Haven, Crow’s Feet, Libretto Magazine, Submittable, Mocking Owl Roost, Bronx Memoir Project, Shady Grove Literary, Fresh Words, Wicked Shadow Press and Potato Soup Journal. Ed’s plays have been staged throughout the New York metropolitan area and around the country. His anthology Short Plays for Long Lives is published by Blue Moon Press.
