Growing up in Atlanta, G.A., Steven Lee Beeber (or "Beeb!" as he was then known) bemoaned not just the fact that none of The Beatles were Jewish, but that Barry Manilow and Neil Sedaka were. If not for the examples made by Lou "the Jew" Reed and Joey "Jewy" Ramone, he might have simply given up and become an accountant. The editor of the forthcoming anthology AWAKE! A Reader for the Sleepless (including work by such greats as James Tate, Margaret Atwood, Louise Bourgeois, and the Suicide Girls), Beeber’s work has appeared in The Paris Review, Fiction, Bridge, The New York Times, Spin, MOJO, Maxim, Details, Conduit, Rain Taxi, and elsewhere. He also blew sax for the Atlanta-based Gospel-punk band The Chowder Shouters. Once or twice, anyway. |
