Adam Kluger is a New York City writer and artist and distant cousin of famed British sculptor Sir Jacob Epstein. Kluger attended the same high school as Jack Kerouac and draws inspiration from diverse literary sources that include Charles Bukowski, John Fante, Ernest Hemingway, and Herman Melville as well as artists Jean Dubuffet, Andy Warhol, Bob Ross, Eric Payson, and Pablo Picasso. Kluger is one of the leaders of New York’s growing Anti-Art movement. He adjudicated the Desperate Times group art show at the Susan Eley gallery in early January.
His illustrated flash fiction, Desperate Times Vol I and II, is available on Amazon.
A veteran television writer and producer (Fox, CNN, E!), Kluger owns and operates a PR firm adamklugerpr.squarespace.com.
He is a proud dad and terrible golfer who says he credits his current literary and art-world success to hard work, a willingness to completely ignore all the rules and the kindness and unflagging support of family and friends.
