Hi, I’m Michael Quinn.

I’m a writer born in Philadelphia.

Previously, I was the playwright of GET IT TOGETHER, a one-act comedy directed by Scott T. Cummings, which the Boston College Heights called “incredibly funny and intensely relatable.” I also gave an interview about it.

I also worked as a designer on JOYCESTICK, a virtual reality adaptation of James Joyce’s modernist epic Ulysses. We presented the game at international literary conferences in Rome, Dublin, Toronto, Singapore and at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History. We were in the Boston Globe and the Associated Press.

I’ve published poems in Rust + Moth, the Chiron Review and more. See how I talk about poetry in my Carve interview.

My play FISHTOWN was produced at the Portland Actors Conservatory in May, 2021, and the American Lives Theatre Festival in October, 2021, in Indianapolis. In 2024, the show ran for two nights at Under St Marks' in New York City, produced by Murmuration Theatre Co.

In summer 2022, I directed a full-length version of GET IT TOGETHER at the Zephyr Theatre in Los Angeles. That play comes to New York in November 2024.

I live in Pennsylvania.
