    Steven Galloway

    Steven Galloway, novelist, professor (born 13 July 1975 in Vancouver, BC). Steven Galloway is widely known for his award-winning international bestseller The Cellist of Sarajevo. He is also known for the controversy surrounding his 2016 dismissal as head of the creative writing program at the University of British Columbia (UBC). Galloway was accused of sexual harassment and sexual assault by a former student, with whom he had a consensual affair. An investigation conducted in 2016 could not substantiate the sexual assault allegations against Galloway. In 2018, Galloway sued the complainant and more than 20 others for defamation. Their appeals were dismissed in 2024. The suit will go to trial, though a date has yet to be set.
