Elizabeth Tamny has written, among other topics, about Edward Gorey’s Chicago childhood, Jeff Bridges’ movie smoking, the FUPA and pubic beauty ideals, Brideshead Revisited, the eleven children in Cheaper by the Dozen, the Ring cycle, M.F.K. Fisher, and Threesome. She is currently (and always) writing about Doris Day; also period film aesthetics, Donny Hathaway, hotel bars, Glitter, and some significant prescriptives for how to make the world better, which isn’t a joke, but we’ll have to see how that goes. Find writing -- and visual art, for she lives confusingly twixt the two -- at elizabethtamny.com.

The Rumpus publishes original fiction, poetry, literary humor writing, comics, essays, book reviews, and interviews with authors and artists of all kinds. Our mostly volunteer-run magazine strives to be a platform for risk-taking voices and writing that might not find a home elsewhere. We lift up new voices alongside those of more established writers our readers may already know and love. We want to bring new perspectives into the conversation that will make us all look deeper.

We believe that literature builds community—and if reading The Rumpus makes you feel more connected, please show your support! Get your Rumpus merch in our online store.
