Congratulations to MFA Creative Writing Program Director Michael White, Ph.D., for winning the 2011 Connecticut Book Award in fiction.
Dr. White, who has been a finalist for the Connecticut Book Award twice before, won for his 2010 historical novel "Beautiful Assassin," which is based on the life of Tat'yana Levchenko, a female sniper who became a Soviet hero during World War II and later traveled to the United States at the request of First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt. The novel - Dr. White's third work of historical fiction - combines mystery, intrigue, romance and tragedy against the backdrop of one of the most significant events in modern history.
