David Field is a 2015 graduate of Trinity College in Hartford, Connecticut, where he majored in English with a Creative Writing focus. While at school he served as co-president for the college’s student-run literary magazine, Slate, and oversaw its 2012 publication. He has been writing since he was in first grade and has completed work on three unpublished novels, one of which – titled Suburban Train – began as his senior thesis project at Trinity.
His self-published book, Curious Incidents: a Collection of Poe and Doyle Remixes, was written as part of the Watkinson Library Fellowship at Trinity and reimagines the classic stories of Edgar Allen Poe and Arthur Conan Doyle in new and contemporary settings. Today he is a member of the Grub Street writing community in Boston. His long-term goal is to earn an MFA and teach creative writing on the college level while continuing to write and publish his works. Trinity College Hyam Plutzik Residency Recipient 2015
