Claire Vaye Watkins

Claire Vaye Watkins (born April 9, 1984) is an American author and academic.

Her book of short stories ''Battleborn'' (Riverhead Books, 2012), won The Story Prize, among other awards. In 2012 the National Book Foundation named her a "5 under 35" honoree. Of her parents' influence on her award-winning collection, Watkins has said, "My father's story is more in the collective subconscious but my mom's is closer to the project." In 2014 Watkins was the recipient of the Guggenheim Fellowship.

Her debut novel, ''Gold Fame Citrus,'' was published in 2015, and her second novel, ''I Love You but I've Chosen Darkness,'' was published in 2021. Watkins currently teaches creative writing at the University of California, Irvine. Provided by Wikipedia
