Ep. 283 - Steve Schlam

from The Rob Burgess Show Hosted by The Rob Burgess Show

Hello and welcome to The Rob Burgess Show. I am, of course, your host, Rob Burgess. On this our 283rd episode, our guest is Steve Schlam. Steve Schlam first gained entrance to the “City of Words” through the doors of the public library in Brooklyn, New York, where he was born and spent a good portion of his childhood, and has maintained his residency ever since while living in cities and towns across the U.S.A. and in Mexico. An actor as well as an author, he has performed on stages in all the places he has called home, and earned an MA degree in Creative Writing under the tutelage of Joseph Heller, renowned author of “Catch-22.” His debut novel, “The Harvesting of Haystacks Kane,” published in 2024, was longlisted for the Bath Novel Award and the Disquiet International Prize for Fiction. He lives now in sunny Southern California in a pretty little Craftsman house with lemons and tangelos growing in the backyard, in the company of his wife, Liora.
