Jack Houghteling

Jack Houghteling is an American novelist and the author of Goodman (2022) and Sunnyside (2023).

Early life and education

Houghteling grew up in Hastings-on-Hudson, New York and graduated from the Hackley School in 2010 and Claremont McKenna College in 2014.[1][2] At the latter, he delivered the student commencement speech at graduation.[3] He later earned a graduate degree from the London School of Economics in 2015 before moving to New York City.[4][5]

Works

Houghteling began Goodman in 2015 but then put it aside for years.[1] It was later longlisted for the Dzanc Books Prize for Fiction.[6]

Sunnyside is about an ex-football player from Westchester County[7] and received acclaim. The podcast The Drunken Odyssey called it a "maximalist masterpiece," describing its style as "neomodernist."[8] The literary journal Socrates on the Beach published an excerpt of Sunnyside,[9] which it characterized as "sui generis” and “unlike almost any other contemporary fiction."[10]

He is currently working on a third project about pre-revolutionary New York.[11]

Personal life

In 2018, Houghteling ran for the New York State Senate as a Democrat in Brooklyn's District 18, but never made it to the primary election ballot.[12][13]

He lives in Upper Manhattan with his partner and daughter.[14]
