Denis J. Underwood

AUTHOR

Denis J. Underwood's stories have appeared in The First Line, The Angler, The Paumanok Review, Hatches Magazine, and elsewhere. His chapbook, Carolina, was published by Wind River Press. Grave Matters, a feature film he co-wrote and co-produced, has been in post-production a few years too many. The project was featured on the Sundance Channel's 24 Frames News. Denis lives in Oak Park, Illinois with his wife, Trish, and his daughter, Helena. He is working on the final draft of his first novel. He is also the web editor for 10,000 Tons of Black Ink. The product of a father born in southeastern Ohio, and a mother hailing from French-Algeria, Denis grew up spending summers in the wilds of the Buckeye State as well as abroad. Some of his earliest memories are of candlelit dinners in France with aunts and uncles who brought to life family chronicles of North Africa. Denis enjoys fly-fishing and experiencing the natural beauty of the places the sport takes him.
