John Patrick Hemingway (born August 19, 1960) is a Canadian-American author, whose memoir Strange Tribe: A Family Memoir examines the similarities and the complex relationship between his parent Gloria Hemingway and his grandfather, Ernest Hemingway; in particular it addresses the issue of the gender identity of Gloria, who was a trans woman.
Hemingway moved to Milan, Italy in 1983, where he pursued a writing and translating career. His articles have appeared in several Italian newspapers such as l'Unità and Libero, and in American magazines and literary journals.
He has published the novel Bacchanalia: A Pamplona Story, inspired by his visits to the San Fermín festival, and has also prefaced the book Hemingway in Pamplona, by Miguel Izu.
