George Buelow
Filed under: Authors
Born and raised in Vicksburg, Mississippi, George Buelow has two well-received psychotherapy textbooks, and is working on a literary thriller set in post-Katrina south Mississippi and on a book of poetry. He has done anthropological research in Alaska and Liberia, practiced psychotherapy, taught at the Universities of Oregon, South Carolina, and Southern Mississippi, and did a one-year postdoc in philosophy at Cornell.
He writes in the areas of mental illness, animal protection, ethnographic fiction and nonfiction. Favorite authors include Eudora Welty, Carson McCullers, and Cormac McCarthy. He lives in south Mississippi with his wife and partner of over forty years, Sidne, and dancing rescued dog, Kelsey. They go on long-distance camping trips and never tire of movies and reading aloud to one another.
