Terri Griffith

Terri Griffith is the book advocate for Bad at Sports. In addition to reviewing books with Joanna Topor, Terri is also interested in queer art and culture. She attended the unimaginably liberal Fairhaven College in Bellingham, WA, where she graduated with an interdisciplinary degree in Writing, Literature and Publishing. She has an MFA in Writing from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

For the last ten years, Terri has been a regular book reviewer for BUST magazine. Her essays are included in the anthologies Without a Net: The Female Experience of Growing-Up Working Class and Are We Feeling Better Yet?: Women’s Encounters with Health Care in America (forthcoming). Along with Nicholas Alexander Hayes, she is co-authoring a queerly transgressive retelling of the Greek Myths. Their versions of The Rape of Io and The Story of Tantalus have appeared in Bloom and Suspect Thoughts respectively.
