Colin Sargent

Photo of Colin SargentI am a part-time distance-learning PhD student in creative writing. With Dr. Green as my supervisor, I am working on a new novel about what it's like to be the tail end of a trend, marooned by society. My novel Museum of Human Beings (www.museumofhumanbeings.com) has had two hardcover editions and a paperback version. My play "100 Percent American Girl" was an Acorn Playwrights' Festival winner, and my screenplay Montebello Ice is under option at Gideon Films.

I am the author of three books of poetry, two published with grants from the National Endowment for the Arts. I have a B.S. in English from the United States Naval Academy, an MFA in creative writing from the University of Southern Maine, and am an individual artist fellowship winner in literature from the Maine Commission for the Arts as well as a member of the board of trustees for the literacy organization Maine Reads. I am the founding editor and publisher of Portland Magazine (www.portlandmagazine.com), and live on the coast of Maine, USA.
