    Bradley's The Chaneysville Incident was inspired in part by the real-life discovery of the graves of a group of runaway slaves on a farm near Chaneysville in Bedford County, Pennsylvania, where Bradley was born.[6][7] This book also earned Bradley a 1982 Academy Award from the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters.

    His short story, "You Remember the Pinmill" (winner of a 2014 O. Henry Award), was published in 2013 in Narrative Magazine.

    Since 1985, Bradley has worked primarily in creative nonfiction, with pieces in Esquire, Redbook, The New York Times, Philadelphia Magaz
