Daniel Scott (born November 17, 1963) is an American novelist and short story writer best known for his discussions of marginalized characters of American society.[1] He has also been cited as an "almost post-gay"[2] writer in that he sometimes employs gay characters whose sexuality is not necessarily a driving force of the story. Scott has been the recipient of awards from various organizations including the Christopher Isherwood Foundation, the New York Foundation for the Arts and the MacDowell Colony. Born November 17, 1963, in Milton, Massachusetts, he currently lives in New York City.
