Kenneth R. Wilson is a freelance writer specializing in southern culture, travel, and politics. He’s anĀ Atlanta magazine contributor and covers politics for ATL Intel.
After leaving the family farm in Tennessee at age 18, Wilson finagled a job with a United States Congressman. From there, he went on to hold various positions with local, state, and national campaigns while earning a degree from Clemson University. He is a veteran of three Presidential campaigns and has served as a Senior Council Aide to an At-Large Atlanta Council Member. After nearly a decade in politics and a brief stint as a communications specialist for an international nonprofit, he eventually found solitude, political incorrectness, and happiness as a dish washer and cook working for Chef David Waller before taking up writing full-time.
In addition to writing, he is a small-time antique dealer with an immense love for equestrian sports, guns, and the Rolling Stones.
