Ellen Prentiss Campbell’s fiction explores the way history and chance, work and the people we love, shape lives. Her debut novel The Bowl with Gold Seams received the National Indie Excellence Award for Historical Fiction. Campbell’s new novel Frieda’s Song (Apprentice House Press, May 2021) is inspired by renowned psychiatrist Frieda Fromm-Reichmann who fled Nazi Germany in 1935 and spent the rest of her life working at the Chestnut Lodge Sanatorium in Rockville, Maryland. Campbell’s collection of stories Contents Under Pressure was nominated for the National Book Award. Her second collection Known By Heart appeared in 2020. Her short fiction has been recognized by The Pushcart Press. Campbell is a reviewer and columnist for The Washington Independent Review of Books and a contributing editor at The Fiction Writers Review. She practiced psychotherapy for many years in Rockville.
