Dow Mossman Profile Picture

Dow Mossman received his B.A. from the University of Iowa and his M.F.A. from the Iowa Writer's Workshop in 1969.

Good To Know

In our interview with Mossman, he recalls, ""The first real job I ever had was pulling corn and soybeans outta boxcars at Cargills. It remains the only one I have had where, at breaks, everyone I knew lay flat on the floor, put a bottle of cold Pepsi on their (panting) navels and (only) breathed for 15 minutes.""

Mossman is an avid Cubs fan and rides a motorcycle.

Some of the other literary figures who have cameos in Stone Reader, Mark Moskowitz's documentary film about Mossman: legendary literary agent Carl Brandt, Iowa Writers' Workshop head Frank Conroy, and Robert Gottlieb, star editor of Joseph Heller's Catch 22.
