Picture
BRICE PARTICELLI is a 2017 NYSCA/NYFA Artist Fellow in Nonfiction and a 2017-2018 Wilson Center Fellow for his research in education. His research focuses on writing pedagogy and genre studies, and his narrative essays span memoir, personal essay, and travel, with topics built around environment, urban development, and post-colonial issues. He is also the co-editor of the anthology America Street: A Multicultural Anthology of Stories (Revised Edition), Persea Books, 2019. 
                 Brice has two book projects in the works—a nonfiction book focused on educational disinformation, and a novel that follows 14-year-old Jeremy as his parents make an ill-advised move to a small island in the Pacific.
