Welcome to Geramee Hensley and Danilo John Thomas
The Kenyon Review is pleased to welcome to its team two new members! Both began work in late May of this year, Danilo John Thomas as assistant managing editor and Geramee Hensley as social media manager.
While originally from the KR's own state of Ohio, Geramee Hensley joins us remotely each week from Arizona, where they recently graduated from the MFA program at the University of Arizona. Hensley has an intimate familiarity with the world of both literary journals and writing workshops, which will serve them well in the new role spreading the word about our publications and programming. Their writing has received support from the Tin House Summer Workshop and appeared in Button Poetry, Poets.org, Indiana Review, The Journal, The Margins, The Recluse, and elsewhere. They serve as Poetry Editor at Tinderbox Poetry Journal and have received numerous awards, most recently a 2022 Academy of American Poets Prize and Booth Journal's Beyond the Margins contest prize.
Danilo John Thomas supports our print production, web design, and more, all while keeping up with his duties as Managing Editor and Prose Editor for Reno-based book publisher Baobab Press. He is the author of the chapbooks The Hand Implements (The Cupboard Pamphlet, 2017) and Murk (AB Gorham, 2012). His writing has won the New Delta Review Gibbs Prize in flash fiction; has been a finalist for the Autumn House Rising Writers Award, the Steel Toe Open Book Award in Fiction, the IHLR Book Prize; and appears in The Fourth River, The Rupture, Fugue, Juked, Midwestern Gothic, and elsewhere. He lives in Omaha, Nebraska, with his wife, two daughters, and Pirl Dog Dog.
Welcome, Nilo and Geramee!
