Autorenporträt
Henley J. Alexandre was born in northeastern Wisconsin, where he developed a passion for the great outdoors. He spent his youth camping in Peninsula State Park, hiking wooded trails, and fishing on the shores of Lake Michigan. After leaving Wisconsin, Alexandre earned advanced degrees from Yale and Georgetown University. He eventually settled in Washington, DC, where he works as a grant writer, researcher, and communications professional. In 2020, he turned his talents toward fiction literature and produced his debut novel, 98.2. His work is influenced by the long history of coming-of-age literature and cinema that defined his upbringing. This includes works by Chaim Potok, Lowis Lowry, and Kevin Williamson. As a rock climber and graphic artist, outdoor themes and aesthetics often work their way into his writing. More than anything, Alexandre aspires to tell human stories that explore our deepest desires and our most intimate relationships. His writing details the timeless and universal character of growing up and the importance of our relationships in times of need.
