A Russian-Armenian émigré, Kristina Gorcheva-Newberry was raised by a mother who believed that unless you read every day, you did not deserve dinner. Kristina graduated from Moscow State Linguistic University and worked as a school teacher and an interpreter before moving to the United States. She received an M.A. in English from Radford University and an M.F.A. in Creative Writing from Hollins University. Kristina’s stories and essays appeared/are forthcoming in Zoetrope: All-Story, Joyland, Electric Literature, The Southern Review, Indiana Review, Epiphany, Gulf Coast, TriQuarterly, Flyway, Slice, Prairie Schooner, Nimrod, and elsewhere. Her fiction was selected as a finalist for multiple awards, including eight Pushcart nominations, the 2016 Dundee International Book Prize, the 2019 Prairie Schooner Book Prize, and the 2020 Indiana Review Fiction Prize. Kristina is the winner of the 2013 Katherine Anne Porter Prize for Fiction and the 2015 Tennessee Williams scholarship from the Sewanee Writers’ Conference. Kristina’s first collection of stories, WHAT ISN’T REMEMBERED, won the 2020 Raz/Shumaker Prairie Schooner Book Prize in Fiction and will be published by University of Nebraska Press in the fall of 2021. Kristina’s debut novel, THE ORCHARD, is forthcoming from Ballantine Books (a division of Penguin Random House) in the spring of 2022.
