Savannah Schroll Guz

Savannah Schroll Guz is author of the short story collection, The Famous & The Anonymous (2004) and editor of the theme-based fiction anthology, Consumed: Women on Excess (2005). Her story, “Essential Wreckage”, was nominated for a Pushcart in 2004 and “Showmanship” was nominated for a Story South Million Writers Award the same year. But even before all this, she was a Fulbright Fellow in Germany and worked as a correspondence translator for the Prince von Hohenzollern. She also helped to reorganize the Flemish painting cabinets in Munich’s Alte Pinakothek. She especially likes lent in Bavaria because this brings with it the delights of Starkbier and fish on a stick. A regular contributor to Library Journal, she writes a monthly “Short Takes” column on newly released reference guides, and as a member of So New Publishing's editorial board, she actively scours the web in search of new, edgy fiction writers. She is quarterly guest editor for the web version of the literary journal, Hobart and is a regular contributor to Pittsburgh City Paper. Her work is forthcoming in Pittsburgh Quarterly.
