An associate professor of literary studies at Utah Valley University and the former editor-in-chief of the Connecticut Journal of International Law, Todd Goddard is also the author of the only biography of the late Jim Harrison, Devouring Time: Jim Harrison, a Writer’s Life. Carl Hiaasen calls the work “raw and revealing, yet with a sensitive eye for both the pain and the talent that made Jim one of modern America’s most intriguing poets and novelists.” Goddard discussed the book with BIO Podcast Producer Jenny Skoog in December.
