Kevin Kling grew up in Osseo, Minnesota and graduated from Gustavus Adolphus College in 1979 with a B. A. in Theatre. He built his reputation in the Twin Cities during the 1990's with his groundbreaking plays "21A" and "Fear and Loving in Minneapolis," and toured a one man show of "Home and Away" across the US in the early 1990's. While his writing and performing continue unabated, he has also become well know for his regular storytelling contributions to NPR's "All Things Considered," and has recently released his third CD collection of his commentaries, titled "Wonderlure."

He has hopped freight trains, joined a circus, been to mardi gras and eaten things before knowing what they were. He loves Mary Ludington, their dogs and motorcycles, in that order. Kling has performed his one-person play "21A" (based on a South Minneapolis bus route) in Sweden, Louisville, KY, Off Broadway in NYC, Sydney and Perth, Australia, Edinburgh Scotland, and the Czech Republic. "Lloyd's Prayer" was work- shopped at the Sundance Institute. His autobiographical play, "Home and Away" has been seen at the Seattle Rep, The Goodman Theater, Jungle Theater, and the HBO Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen, Colorado among other venues. His adaptation of "Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse" continues to be produced in theaters across the US and abroad. Kevin Kling is a member of the Playwrights' Center in Minneapolis, and is currently working on writing several plays and compiling a book of his stories.
