Bio

Donald McCarthy currently lives on Long Island in New York. He is a graduate of City College of New York's MFA program and tutors and teaches at SUNY Old Westbury. His writing has appeared in Huffington Post, Salon, Alternet, Pseudopod, The Progressive Populist, Screen Spy, KZine, The Washington Pastime, and more.

Oddly enough, he has an extreme dislike of cheese and doesn't see what's so special about the beach.
