Matthew Lawrence
Bio
I was born in Providence,
Rhode Island in 1981 and grew up in nearby Cranston, a town whose most
famous residents include Elizabeth Hasselbeck and Ali McGraw's
character in Love Story.
I am one of the founding editors of Headmaster, a biannual art magazine
for man-lovers, and I also run Not About The Buildings, a local
literary events organization.
For nine years I worked in retail while keeping myself
occupied with other projects. I've hosted five all-ages spelling
bees, DJed parties and weddings, hosted a Top 40 radio show, curated a
dog-themed film festival, judged two facial hair competitions, opened a
gallery in my apartment, written copy for an underwear catalog, edited
a book about Cambodian postcards, modeled for a charity calendar,
publicly read stories about my sex life, organized a
read-a-thon for the local chapter of Books Through Bars, spoken on
panels about Surviving As
A Freelancer and Nurturing A Queer Canon, and worked odd jobs as a location
scout, a barback, a stockboy, a fashion stylist, a sex blogger, a
dogwalker, and a supervisor of census
workers.
