Finn Murphy Picture

Finn Murphy is the author of The Long Haul – A Trucker’s Tales of Life on the Road (W.W. Norton). More than thirty years ago, Finn dropped out of college and hit the road as an interstate mover. Since then he’s covered a million miles packing, loading, and hauling people’s belongings all over America. He tells funny, poignant, and haunting stories of the people he’s moved and opens up an unseen world most of us have wondered about. Brimming with personality and great characters, The Long Haul explores the appeal of manual labor and shows what happens behind the scenes when we call the movers. A former Nantucket resident, Finn now lives in Boulder, Colorado.
