About Garrison Keillor
Welcome to Garrison Keillor and Friends, where GK can stay in touch with those who enjoy his writing, fans of A Prairie Home Companion, poetry lovers, and word buffs in general. This is how you’ll find his weekly column (sometimes two), Lake Wobegon monologues, limericks, jokes, and who knows what else.
Born in Anoka, Minnesota, Garrison Keillor is the author of numerous books, including novels, a memoir, That Time of Year, and his recent Brisk Verse. For more than forty years, he hosted the radio show A Prairie Home Companion, heard on public radio coast to coast and beyond.
A paid subscription option, The Back Room, will offer unpublished works in progress (“to read when the ink is still wet, and be able to comment, correct, chastise, or sheer”), poet interviews, a podcast, and many other buried treasures.
Garrison says:
I’m an old Minnesotan, enjoying exile in New York City along with my wife Jenny.
