A south Florida native and Northwestern University alum, fiction author Karen Russell became one of the youngest Pulitzer Prize nominees with her debut novel Swamplandia! On the strength of her darkly surreal writing, she also became one of the youngest authors to be awarded a MacArthur “Genius Grant” last fall. Based on the lead story from Russell’s first collection, St. Lucy’s Home For Girls Raised By Wolves, Swamplandia! was widely praised and acquired for development by HBO.
