J Kramer Hare

Justin Kramer Hare is a native of Pittsburgh, PA and recent transplant to the Bay Area. After receiving a BA in economics from Washington University in St. Louis, he moved to Denver, CO where he spent a brief stint in consulting before beginning his journey as a writer. He currently daylights as a tutor.

 

J Kramer's literary influences range from the metatextual experimentations of Flann O'Brien and Italo Calvino to the shrewd and cutting satire of Sinclair Lewis to the gorgeous sonics of Virginia Woolf. Among poets, WB Yeats, Hart Crane, Seamus Heaney, Derek Walcott, and Louise Glück stand out as favorites.

​

Beyond writing, he is interested in philosophy, politics, jazz, rock climbing, fashion, architecture, and more.
