The Art of Fugue

Will Clattenburg was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and attended Yale University, graduating with a BA in English. He has taught in public schools at the elementary level for over ten years, first in Brooklyn, New York then in Albuquerque, New Mexico. For the 2020-2021 school year, he taught "live" from his bedroom, using his eight-year-old's art easel in lieu of blackboard. His short story collection, The Art of Fugue, was published in 2020, and several of his stories have appeared in journals and books, most recently The Best Short Stories of Philadelphia and Crack the Spine's The Year Anthology. He received an MFA in Creative Writing from New Mexico State University and lives with his family in Albuquerque.
