Jameson Currier, an American writer, died on July 13, 2026, at age 70.
Born in Marietta, Georgia, on October 16, 1955, he wrote as a novelist, short story writer, poet, critic, journalist, editor, and publisher. Currier earned a B.A.
in English from Emory University, where he took part in music and theater groups, and later began graduate study in dramatic literature at New York University in 1978 before leaving without a degree.

His early fiction often followed the comic lives of nomadic performers, though his themes later shifted as friends and contemporaries were lost to the AIDS epidemic.
