Steve Grant was laid off from his corporate job in March 2020. He was fifty and had cancer, so he needed health insurance fast — which is how he became a letter carrier in his rural Appalachian hometown. In his celebrated memoir, Grant recounts how the wonder, heartbreak, and danger along his winding route shook something loose in his heart. A brash, inspirational portrait of an all-American institution, Mailman has become a word-of-mouth sleeper hit, praised by postal workers nationwide for getting it right. A story of second chances — and how far love will push us when everything is on the line — Mailmandelivers. 

Stephen Starring Grant is a graduate of the Iowa Writers’ Workshop in creative writing and poetry. An award-winning independent filmmaker who later spent two decades in advertising, he never stopped working toward becoming a writer. Now the bestselling author of Mailman and a sought-after speaker on resilience and reinvention, he lives with his wife and two daughters in Blacksburg, Virginia.
