Craig Womack is an author and professor of Native American literature. He self-identifies as being of Creek and Cherokee descent, but is not enrolled with any Native American tribe.[1] Womack wrote the book Red on Red: Native American Literary Separatism, a book of literary criticism which argues that the dominant approach to academic study of Native American literature is incorrect. Instead of using poststructural and postcolonial approaches that do not have their basis in Native culture or experience, Womack claims the work of the Native critic should be to develop tribal models of criticism. In 2002, Craig won Wordcraft Circle Writer of the Year Winner.[2] Along with Robert Allen Warrior, Jace Weaver and Greg Sarris, Womack asserted themselves as a nationalist (American Indian literary nationalism),[3] which is part of an activist movement. The movement significantly altered the critical methodologies used to approach Native American literature.
Womack has also produced a novel, Drowning in Fire, about the lives of young gay Native Americans.
Currently, Womack is employed as a professor at Emory University, specializing in Native American literature.[4]
