Andrew Sean Greer is the Pulitzer Prize winning author of six works of fiction, including the bestsellers The Confessions of Max Tivoli and Less. Greer has taught at a number of universities, including the Iowa Writers Workshop. He's also been a TODAY show pick, a New York Public Library Cullman Center Fellow, a judge for the National Book Award, and a winner of the California Book Award and the New York Public Library Young Lions Award.

Greer is this year's Stein Visiting Writer. Each year, the Creative Writing Program welcomes distinguished writers to teach a Stanford writing seminar to undergraduates. Greer's seminar will be Reading for Writers: The Thief and The Golem. These seminars are made possible with the generous support of Isaac and Madeline Stein.
