About Terence Hawkins
I was born in Uniontown PA in 1956.
There. I said it.
Through a series of administrative errors still the subject of chagrined scrutiny I was permitted not only to attend but graduate from Yale, where I was publisher of the Yale Daily News. The wind next blew me to Madison, Wisconsin, for law school. After practicing there for three years I returned to New Haven, where I chase ambulances for a day job.
Guess I just like college towns.
FAYETTE COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA
where I grew up, has achieved probably unwelcome immortality as Fayette Nam in Philipp Meyers’ American Rust.
Feigning an interest in sports.
The graveyard behind Joe Domen’s Barbershop, Uniontown. Until recently I believed it to be a cemetery for pious pets. Then I read the tombstones.
Halloween 1961. I am a space man.
