Kevin Dolgin is 41 years old. He is originally from New York, but has been living in and around Paris for the past twenty years or so. Besides writing, he has had a successful career as a top management consultant, while in parallel pursuing a career in music. Both of these have provided material for his fiction.
Kevin has been writing seriously for the past six years or so, and his short stories have appeared in a number of literary journals, including, among others, "The Vincent Brothers Review", "The Berkeley Fiction Review", "CrossConnect", "Zoetrope All Story Extra", "AIM Quarterly", "Night Train" and "Hobart". An excerpt of his novel "Entropy" was published in "The Absinthe Literary Review". He was recently nominated for a Pushcart prize.
Kevin writes a regular travel feature for McSweeneys.net: "Kevin Dolgin Tells You About Places You Should Go in Europe" , and a regular music column for Opium Magazine: "Left Bank, Right Bank".
Between 1992 and 1997 Kevin was the guitarist of the Paris-based rock group “The Exiles”. He was also the group’s co-composer and shared lead vocals with Jonathan Cook, who has continued in music and will be coming out with a solo album, “Cosmic Casino”, in Canada later this year. This album features a number of songs co-written by Cook and Dolgin. The Exiles produced one album, in 1995.
