Author of more than 30 books, Rick Bass’ fiction has received O. Henry Awards, numerous Pushcart Prizes, and fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Guggenheim Foundation, and the Mississippi Institute of Arts and Letters, among others. A collection of short fiction, The Hermit’s Story (2003), was named a Los Angeles Times Best Book of the Year, and another collection, For a Little While (2016) won the prestigious Story Prize. He has had numerous stories and nonfiction works included in Best American anthologies. Various of his books have been named New York Times as well as Los Angeles Times Notable Books of the Year, and a New York Times Best Book of the Year.

His most recent nonfiction book, The Traveling Feast (2018), chronicles the author’s epic pilgrimage to thank the writers who influenced his life and work—including Peter Matthiessen, Denis Johnson, John Berger, David Sedaris, Joyce Carol Oates and Terry Tempest Williams, among others—by cooking them supper.

His stories, articles and essays have appeared in The Paris Review, The New Yorker, The Atlantic Monthly, Narrative, Men’s Journal, Harper’s, New York Times Sunday Magazine, the Washington Post, Tin House, Orion, and many others. He has served as a contributing editor to Audubon, OnEarth, Field & Stream, Big Sky Journal, and Sports Afield. Bass is on the faculty at the University of Southern Maine’s Stonecoast MFA program, and has taught creative writing for more than 30 years.
