The Hours established Cunningham as a major force in the American writing sphere, and his 2010 novel, By Nightfall, was also well received by U.S. critics.[10] Cunningham edited a book of poetry and prose by Walt Whitman,[11]Laws for Creations, and co-wrote, with Susan Minot, a screenplay adapted from Minot's novel Evening. He was a producer for the 2007 film Evening, starring Glenn Close, Toni Collette, and Meryl Streep.
In November 2010, Cunningham judged one of NPR's "Three Minute Fiction" contests.[12]
Although Cunningham is gay, and married to psychoanalyst Ken Corbett,[14] he dislikes being referred to as a gay writer, according to a PlanetOut article.[15] While he often writes about gay people, he does not "want the gay aspects of [his] books to be perceived as their single, primary characteristic."[16] Cunningham lives in Brooklyn, New York and works in Manhattan.[17]
