Over the course of his unpublished career, Gunthar Fleck has written not only an impressive number of emails as a Finance professional, but volumes of creative writing which have unceremoniously found their way to a trash can on Chicago’s Blue Line. Much more has been conceived since that devastating moment, with his largest debut coming from a Yelp review of the local “Rock N’ Roll” McDonalds; garnering a "critical masterpiece" response within the underground of Chicago’s River North Neighborhood. Gunthar lives in Chicago by way of Atlanta. He draws on artistic influences from a multitude of mediums including Nelson Algren, Father John Misty, Anthony Bourdain, Mark Normand, and Jonah Hill. When he is not working or writing you can find him sitting in his favorite seat at the corner of his favorite bar, Rocks in River North Chicago. He will either be playing Skee Ball, talking to regulars, or introvertedly enjoying a gin and tonic.

He's a wealth of knowledge and passion when it comes to addiction recovery and family wellness.
