Timeline
During her final years, DeRosa lived in Park Ridge, Illinois. In 2005, she converted from Catholicism to the Greek Orthodox religion. She died on February 3, 2007, aged 62.
DeRosa struggled for eight years, off and on, before completing her autobiographical novel, Paper Fish. Assisted by grants from the Illinois Arts Council and the National Endowment for the Arts, the novel was first published by Wine Press in 1980, and was nominated for the Carl Sandburg Award. An Italian-language edition, Pesci di Carta, was published in 2007.
She was a writer in residence at the Ragdale Foundation from 1977 to 1982. She subsequently published two volumes of poetry and a biography of Bishop John Baptist Scalabrini, and wrote at least one more novel. Her writing has appeared in journals such as MELUS and Italian Americana, and in anthologies such as Helen Barolini's The Dream Book: An Anthology of Writings by Italian American Women (1985). In 1995 she won the Rona Jaffe Foundation Writers' Award. She earned her living at various jobs in the Chicago area, including communications director at the Urban Transportation Center of UIC and administrative assistant and editor for biomedical researchers.
DeRosa earned a bachelor's degree from Mundelein College in 1966, and a master's degree in English from the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) in 1977. She later said in an interview that she felt "completely lost" during her first two years at Mundelein, being one of only about three people from her neighborhood who went to college. At UIC, she taught composition classes while working on her master's thesis.
Tina DeRosa (also De Rosa; 1944–2007) was an American writer best known for her 1980 novel, Paper Fish. She also published poetry, short stories, and creative nonfiction.
