About James Morrow

James Morrow

James Morrow

James Morrow (born 1947) is an award-winning fiction author. A self-described "scientific humanist", his work not only satirises organized religion but also elements of humanism and atheism. He lives in State College, Pennsylvania with his wife, Kathryn Smith Morrow, his son, Christopher, and their dogs.

Morrow questions not only religious viewpoints but atheistic and humanistic views as well. For example, his novel Towing Jehovah includes an extended subplot dealing with the evolution of a character's views on ethics and morality as he faces the idea of a post-theistic world.

His cousin is the journalist Lance Morrow.
