C.O. Moed
C.O. Moed grew up on New York’s Lower East Side when it was still a tough neighborhood. She is an alum of the WOW Café, a recipient of the Elizabeth George Grant for Fiction, and was a Rockefeller Media Arts nominee. Her short stories, flash nonfiction and dramatic works have been published in several anthologies and literary reviews, including: Lilith Magazine, Sensitive Skin, Unexpected Stories, 100subtext magazine, Inspirational Art Magazine, Shades of Blue (Seal Press), and AWAKE!: Reader for the Sleepless (Soft Skull Press).
Moed explores the elusive definition of home, chronicling stories of family, neighbors and the city through writing and street photography in her memoir, It Was Her New York. Between day jobs and writing rage in pretty words, she lives with a cat and her husband, fellow writer Ted Krever, in New York City. They are all Mets fans.
