Brett gregory bio
Brett Gregory has worked with independent publisher Two Dollar Radio since 2016, doing everything from mailing ARCs, to reading submissions, to managing social media, to running publicity campaigns. He is a co-founder and co-owner of bookstore/café Two Dollar Radio Headquarters in Columbus, OH, where he operated the business until 2021. In 2017 he helped launch a music/literature festival called Flyover Fest in Columbus, OH. Flyover has hosted national artists such as Danez Smith, BRONCHO, Open Mic Eagle, Erika Sanchez, and many others. Before Two Dollar Radio, Brett studied English at the Ohio State University, completed an AmeriCorps stint in upstate New York with Habitat for Humanity, worked as a bartender, and went on several unsuccessful (but fun) DIY-tours in a rock band. He now lives with his family in Cincinnati, most recently working for the Public Library. |
