C. R. Grey was born in a house on a pier in Maine - literally on the
ocean. She grew up in Memphis, Tennessee, then received her BA in
Theater from SUNY New Paltz and her MFA in Fiction from Ohio State
University. Grey lives in a sunny apartment in Poughkeepsie, New York,
with one black cat, one white cat, and a Boston Terrier named Trudy. She can often be found weeding through ephemera in antique shops and
walking over the bridges that span the Hudson River.
