His books include a story collection, The Quorum (2005), a novel, Cadenza for the Schneidermann Violin Concerto(2007), and Aleph-Bet: An Alphabet for the Perplexed (2007), a collaboration with artist Michael Hafftka. Another novel, A Heaven of Others, is forthcoming this winter. Cohen is a literary critic for The Forward, and lives in Brooklyn, NY.
Michael Disend is an actor and writer living in San Francisco. Disen has appeared in several plays and films over the past 25 years. Most recently as the lead role in Attitude (2003) directed by Cannes Palm D'or Winner Rob Nilsson. As a writer, Disend achieved early success with his novel, Stomping the Goyim, which was praised by William S. Burroughs, and heralded as a seminal novel of the 60's.
The novel was re-issued by Green Integer (2002) through a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts & the Contemporary Arts Educational Project. Many of Disend's short stories and features have appeared in The Villiage Voice, The San Francisco Bay Guardian, Details, Gentleman's Quarterly, Penthouse, American Photographer, Sports Illustrated, Sport, and several other publications.
