Justin Callahan is a novelist whose storytelling is deeply rooted in lived experience, rich character observation, and a legacy of literary influence. Born in Massachusetts, raised in New York, and a longtime resident of Miami, Callahan brings a distinct sense of place and authenticity to his work, shaped by decades of diverse cultural and personal experiences.

The son of a children's book writer and the grandson of a renowned Irish author, Callahan was immersed in the world of literature from an early age. His writing carries the echoes of that heritage, while forging a voice uniquely his own—gritty, lyrical, and unflinchingly human.

He is the author of five novels: Down and Out in Manhattan, Possible Twenty, Adrift from Paradise, The Parting Glass, and Visions of the Fall. Each work explores themes of dislocation, memory, and resilience, often inspired by the people he's known and the places he's called home.

Callahan is currently completing his sixth novel, continuing his exploration of the emotional terrain where the personal meets the universal.
