Charlotte Henley grew up on the Maine coast listening to foghorns and late-night pirate radio. She studied ethnomusicology and English at Oberlin College and earned an MFA from the University of British Columbia. A former teen services librarian and community choir director, she has led youth writing workshops from Portland to Halifax and collected oral histories of maritime soundscapes for a small museum. Her short fiction has appeared in literary journals and was shortlisted for the Journey Prize in 2018. She lives in Halifax, Nova Scotia, with her spouse, a rescue mutt named Tempo, and an unruly collection of secondhand records.
