Early life and education

Family

Solomon's paternal grandfather, who was Jewish, emigrated from Dorohoi, Romania, to the United States in 1900.[21] Solomon is the oldest son of Carolyn Bower Solomon and Howard Solomon, former chairman of Forest Laboratories and founder of Hildred Capital Partners;[22] he is brother to David Solomon, also of Hildred Capital Partners.[23] Solomon described the experience of his family's presence at his mother's planned suicide at the end of a long battle with ovarian cancer in an article for The New Yorker;[24] in a fictionalized account in his novel, A Stone Boat; and again in The Noonday Demon. Solomon's subsequent depression, eventually managed with psychotherapy and antidepressant medications, inspired his father to secure FDA approval to market citalopram (Celexa) in the United States.[25]

Education

Solomon was born and raised in Manhattan. He attended the Horace Mann School, graduating cum laude in 1981.[26] He received a Bachelor of Arts degree in English from Yale University in 1985, graduating magna cum laude,[27] and later earned a master's degree in English at Jesus College, Cambridge.[28] In August 2013, he was awarded a Ph.D. in psychology from Jesus College, Cambridge, with a thesis on attachment theory prepared under the supervision of Juliet Mitchell.

Publications and career

In 1988, Solomon began his study of Russian artists, which culminated with the publication of The Irony Tower: Soviet Artists in a Time of Glasnost (Knopf, 1991). His first novel, A Stone Boat (Faber, 1994), the story of a man's shifting identity as he watches his mother battle cancer, was a runner up for the Los Angeles Times First Fiction prize.[29]

In April 2016, Scribner published Far and Away: Reporting from the Brink of Change, a collection of Solomon's international reporting since 1991;[70] the book has since been reissued with the title, Far and Away: How Travel Can Change the World.[71] The New York Times included Far and Away in its list of 100 Notable Books of 2016.[72]

On November 10, 2017, Far from the Tree, a documentary based on Solomon's book, premiered at the DOC NYC festival.[73] North American rights to the documentary have been acquired by Sundance Selects.[74]

In July 2020, Solomon was one of the 153 signers of the "Harper's Letter" (also known as "A Letter on Justice and Open Debate") that expressed concern that "the free exchange of information and ideas, the lifeblood of a liberal society, is dally becoming more constricted."[100]

Personal life

As an adult, Solomon became a dual citizen of the United States and the United Kingdom. He and journalist John Habich had a civil partnership ceremony on June 30, 2007, at Althorp, the Spencer family estate and childhood home of Diana, Princess of Wales.[101] [102] The couple married again on July 17, 2009, the eighth anniversary of their meeting, in Connecticut, so that their marriage would be legally recognized in the state of New York.[103] [104]

In 2003, Solomon and longtime friend Blaine Smith had a child together; their daughter, Carolyn Blaine Smith Solomon, was born in November 2007. Smith and their child live in Texas. A son, George Charles Habich Solomon, was born in April 2009, and lives in New York with Solomon and Habich, his adoptive father. Habich is also the biological father of two children, Oliver and Lucy Scher, born to lesbian friends who live in Minneapolis. The development of this composite family was the subject of a feature article by Solomon published in Newsweek in January 2011,[103] and in an April 2012 profile in The Observer.[105]
