Abrons Arts Center's 2017-18 season, the first season to be curated by new Artistic Director Craig Peterson, celebrates the idea that a community is a place of intersecting ideas and action.

Gun violence, gentrification, immigration, income and power inequality, freedom, gender, and race are just some of the social issues artists are grappling with this season.

'We were hardening into ourselves back in the summer of '85, but I felt more like the fleshy skin inside an orange. My buddies were in a rush to grow up. Not me.' Gorman, is the author of the novels 'Shades of Luz' and 'Disposable Heroes.' He earned his MFA in Creative Writing at Pacific University in Forest Grove Oregon. He's a lifelong Queens resident and has served on the editorial board of Newtown Literary and has been a frequent guest at the Boundless Tales Reading Series. An active blogger and story writer, his work has appeared in over 50 journals, worldwide. In 2003, his screenplay 'For the Love of Auntie' won the best screenplay writing competition at the NY International Independent Film and Video Festival. Many of the stories in his debut collection 'Something Like Bliss' cross genre boundaries as well as myriad emotional landscapes. 'El Mariachi' is set in Mexicoa and focuses on the unrequited love a young man has for his aunt. 'A Private Language' is an updated, reconfigured 'Stand By Me,' following the lives of 4 latchkey boys that culminates in a gruesome moment that will forever change them. Some of the stories have a fabulist element. 'Rejects fro the Pretzel Factory' is a comical take on the exploitation on a sweet old lady, a former Rockette, who is roped into a greedy corporation's rebranding campaign. Karl Wenclas of New Pop Lit says 'John Gorman is part of a new wave of short story writers reinvigorating the art. Their emphasis is on clarity and fun and reality privilege and pretentiousness thrown out. The result for the reader is win-win, and the reader after all is what the short story form is about.' Gorman is available for interviews and appearances. For book signings, media appearances, interviews, and/or book signings please contact jgorm22@hotmail.com.
